That is the French finale
I dunno the resulting balls are a bit too heavy for tennis.
I always thought the French opening was the Trou-de-cul.
Too many rooks on the dance floor.
Mate in two moves.
In two moves? I mean, ok, I guess, but I'd prefer to be taken out to dinner first at least.
First we got rid of the king and queen, then the knights had no one to serve, the bishops lost there power over the populace, and then all that remained was the pawns and a bunch of empty castles.
Turned out the castles, or burges, are not that empty and don't need a king to serve.
Would is not make even more sense of the board was flipped? The pawn on g1 technically can be taken by the king.
Is that the royal en passant? In which the king is allowed to move two spaces (and through check)?
ah yes, the French Sweet 16
