Learn How to Fork: Rapport-Jobava System
This puzzle comes from a sharp Rapport-Jobava System middlegame where tactical pressure outweighs pure material count. White’s pieces are active, but Black’s king is still vulnerable and key defenders are overloaded. The main idea is to use a forcing move that creates a check while also improving the attack on loose pieces. In positions like this, a fork often appears because the enemy king and a valuable piece are aligned in a way that cannot be defended at once.
