sacrificing 19 points of material and still checkmating is legendary

[@izaactheberean6860]

& the knight. Levy forgot to say that. I guess you can say the pawn early on too for the "Benko gambit", which makes it 23 points of material.

[@eliaskjrbo8142]

@@izaactheberean6860 Gambitting and sacrificing is kinda different though.

[@izaactheberean6860]

@@eliaskjrbo8142 I would consider a gambit a type of sacrifice. It's not a traditional one, but you still give up a full piece for an advantage - which is what a sacrifice is. But, if you want to consider them different, then 22 points of material was sacrificed.

[@MattByrne]
