Attack the queen with Bf5

Attack the queen with Bf5
I'm planning some work in Steps 1 - mix, and at least one 30m game on chess dot com.

Nd3+ gets recaptured
Nxc2+ forks the rook, but gets recaptured by the queen, which we can attack with Be5
Nxa2 captures the pawn, forces the recapture with the rook, and white cannot castle long
Na6 is safe but not great
I'd go with Nxc2+. Capture a pawn and get a tempo on the queen

I'm stumped here. Two ways to protect the knight, a5 and Qd3. But I'm guessing those are not the correct move.

Chess can add a little to our longevity (though the "data" presented is thin) I think it's the enrichment of our lives that matters a bit more.

That's a good reminder. I also have to avoid the afternoon and evening for the same reason.👍

Is there a way to save the chessfeed? I have Chesspunks saved but can't seem to do similar with chessfeed. Thanks!

Kxe3 seems so alluring. But I think the others are likely more experienced, and planing to usher the H pawn is the move.

After reading/listening to Noel Studer talk about his #chess challenge I've taken a similar approach. Just playing a game or two a night with as much focus as I can. So far I'm losing quite a bit, but I'm not stressing (too much). Just gonna keep playing for the rest of the month. #chesspunks
