What if you could get your king out of check and start attacking your opponent’s king at the same time?
Well, this is what cross-checking is all about! A cross-check happens when a player moves a piece to get out of check, and at the same time, puts the enemy king in check.
This kind of movement is important because it can completely turn the tables! Your opponent thought they had your king? Not so fast! You deliver a cross-check, and now you’re the one going after their monarch.
In this video, FunMasterMike goes over this important chess concept and shows you some examples of cool cross-checks you can use in your own games.
Do you want to learn even more about the cross-check and how you can use it in your favor to win more games? Then check out this article on ChessKid that goes over it.
