  notyetagm: A 2279-rated player really played 11 Ba4??, creating an undefended piece to go with his exposed uncastled e1-king (<TWO WEAKNESSES>)? Wow. I would be ashamed of making that move in a blitz game.

<UNDEFENDED PIECE + EXPOSED KING = DOUBLE ATTACK WITH CHECK>

Chess tactics do not get much simpler than this. Like Chernev wrote, <There are always threats against undefended pieces>.
