"This move is necessary, since 6...Kg6? 7.Qf5+ Kh6 8.d4+ g5 9.h4! would leave White with a crushing attack."  Let's say I'm confused by d4+. [[User:70.129.156.206|70.129.156.206]] 04:42, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

:It's a "discovered check"; after that move, Black is in check from the bishop on c1, which the d-pawn was blocking before. Does that clear it up? [[User:DanielCristofani|DanielCristofani]] 07:01, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
