Actually the bishop was also helping in making the checkmate (Bishop on e4)  :)


... and the queen, if you want to be completely accurate. But it looks like the two knights just rushed into the white king's house and kicked his butt.

Also, 24. Qd2 and 25. Rxd1 obviously doesn't work in the sideline (because of 25... Nf3+), but you get the point.

I'm really mad at myself for missing this mate in 3 yesterday.  I played the lame ...Qxh3.

Black to move and win.

@Mecury_Carinona Well 11. Nh4 leads to 11. ... Qg4 as black's move then it is a Qeen trade but black ends up down a bishop.


You're right, but seeing as this was someone who played their queen too early, my assumption is that they would rather not give up their queen even in a trade, as I would end up more developed afterwards anyway. That's why I think he forfeited.


hxg4! DOH!

Yeah I don't have the game saved, but I did manage a forced smothered mate on the back rank with the black pieces against a 1800 rated player. Felt good after I saw the forced pattern

This is the best checkmate I've ever had.

A few moves away from mate, see if you can spot it.

Check out my best checkmate ever.

 

fenrissaga

this one was a quick mate

fenrissaga

This one a Traxler counterattack schould have lead to a draw or perpetual but my opponent made some mistakes in the last moves

FortunaMajor

This is not my game. This was played between one of my friends and another guy. Both the players were amateurs so they made ,like, tons of mistakes. But the checkmate at the end is awesome! Enjoy the game.

This one was a pretty fun game. It's not often that you play a game with a Q + 2R sacrifice and a five-move Excelsior motif with the pawn queening with check that loses, all in 16 moves.
