The Right of Refusal Trade
Compiled by Gilmoy
--*--

Pattern elements:
1. Alice discovers or forks Bob's piece of higher value (usually Bob's Q), often as a zwieschenzug.

2. Bob looks deeper, sees enough compensation, and takes the piece instead of retreating his Q.

Bob trades Q for 2 pieces + dynamic factors, and wins.
