this game of 5|0 I only had to use a few brain cells after Qxe4. You can get into big trouble if you put your queen in a spot where she is vulnerable to attacks from numerous different pieces. Intuition told me I could probably trap the queen because she was in such a cramped area. I barely had to think here, while my opponent had to be very careful. It’s kind of a cheesy flagging blitz thing but it can be incredibly effective in short time controls. I did end up getting the queen in the end with a nice discovered attack sequence, and my opponent ran out of time.
