Sacrifice a knight/bishop for a pawn and preventing the other player from castling?

I've been experimenting with this for a while now and actually like this a lot. If you move your knight or bishop to the f7 square, usually but not always capturing a pawn, the only way for black to capture you piece early in the game is with the king. then he cannot castle, and you can flush his king out, put him in check many times, and often dominate the game and make up for well more than the two point loss for the kinight/bishop for pawn trade. I've had quite a lot of success doing this against the hard level of play on my computer and against some friends that play chess. Anyone else like or not like this strategy? Let me know what you think and why!Sacrifice a knight/bishop for a pawn and preventing the other player from castling?
This can be an interesting sacrifice against a mediocre player in a blitz game. It can be very difficult to defend against constant pressure against the king with limited time to think.



However, if the sacrifice is played without adequate preparation and your opponent is strong and/or has plenty of time to think, you will probably lose.
this completely depends upon the opponent and position. if you actually sent me a game you played i could try to analyze it. but i wouldn't reccomend sacrificing for the f7 pawn because it is theorestically easy to get the king into safety and your down a piece.

the question is vague but the overall plan would work if it was prepared ahead. (don't just go doing that as your 3 move)

fell free to send me a game you played like thisSacrifice a knight/bishop for a pawn and preventing the other player from castling?
That move was actually invented by the RZA, (dont tell me you don't know who he is) and is termed the "wu-tang" sacrifice, after the greatest rap group of all time (which he started). He said it works best on low level players, but the better ones catch on quick. I've been looking to try it out though.
...not a good idea? so what if i cant castle? im a piece ahead and plan on keeping that advantage...if i had to, id castle the hard way and still be a piece ahead

get this book. trust meSacrifice a knight/bishop for a pawn and preventing the other player from castling?
it sounds like a good stratagy.

i always play a defenseive postion
The F7 (the square occupied by the King Bishop pawn) square is the weakest square. Many players have captured this pawn to prevent the King from capturing.



Although it may initially seem like a good idea, any good player will eventually understand to take advantage of his piece advantage as soon as possible. When a player does that to me, I exchange pieces as soon as possible and get to the end game as soon as possible. Any advantages on the pieces (exchange advantage) can best be exploited or capitalized at the end game.



During the end game (especially when the Queens are no longer on the board), a centralized King is very powerful.
