I’m failing to understand the lichess.org practice exercise ‘Exploit the Pin
#3’. I’ve arrived at the ‘correct’ move (Nxg5), but without any understanding of where there is a pin, and how it has been exploited. Can someone please enlighten me?

Another beginner here but I think the pin in this case is the knight on e6 pinned to the rook e8. If that black’s knight moves to take g5 then the exchanges end up with white losing both rooks.
