1Intuitively, black would win, because he takes the white king first, and the game ends at that point. – James Christopher Oct 11 '13 at 06:04

2Based on your comment on Tony Ennis's answer, you are playing a variant where taking king is legal. If that is the case, how would others know the rules of your or your friend's variant? – JiK Oct 11 '13 at 10:50

I think the comment from @JiK is spot on, and there isn't really a clear, answerable question here. I'm going to close this question; it can be reopened if it is edited into something more suitable. For what it's worth, there is a somewhat related earlier question: http://chess.stackexchange.com/q/1515/167 – ETD Oct 11 '13 at 12:39

The knight move is illegal since one may not expose one's king to check. That the rook is pinned is of no relevance.

yes, I've consider that, but in this case, taking king is legal.. – Ahmad Azwar Anas Oct 11 '13 at 05:39

In chess, the king cannot be captured, so I don't know what you mean. – Tony Ennis Oct 11 '13 at 11:15

2It's a variant. It isn't standard chess. You can make up any rules that please you in that case. – Tony Ennis Oct 12 '13 at 12:12
