A Kaprekar number


I have pruned the tree of scenarios drastically, and added the initiative as branch.

  1. Here's a sick tactic from a 17yr old beating a GM in 2014. I guess you could put this one under initiative.

    The tactic starts with Black's 22nd move.

  2. I'll confess: I had not previously learned of the idea, so I looked it up. What is the actual Kaprekar number in this context, and how did you arrive at that number?
