This game had an extremely strange smothered mate, which I call a semi-smothered mate.

There is also an opening trap in the Budapest gamebit that features a smothered mate while the king is in his starting square.

Your "smothered mate" is not even a semi smothered 0_o

There is not even a semi smothered

it is either smothered or not

How does this even resemble smothered mate? It is not even a knight check.

Both of those traps are awesome! I've used them before and they're really cool... and by the way I don't think the budapest is bad at all, if you remember to do the rook lift with the queen's rook later in the game (if it lasts that long)...
