HOW IS THIS NOT MATE

Sort:
Avatar of Antony-Stark

So in bughouse, I managed to spot a fool's mate that my opponent blundered. I played it, but it was NOT mate due to the fact that they can still drop pieces (bughouse). In that SPECIFIC MOMENT, they had NO EXTRA MATERIALS TO DROP AND YET THE GAME DID NOT END IN MATE. Here is a screenshot post game: I did cut out a bit of the extra pieces on the left, but you can CLEARLY SEE THAT HE HAS NO EXTRA PIECES. Bughouse NEEDS an update for these situations.

And to top that off, my teammate (600 elo) THREW THEIR GAME ON TIME AGAINST A 100 ELO.

I think if there's still enough time on the clock, he can still wait until his teammate takes a piece that he can then use to block the check.

Your opponent could possibly get a piece and block your check. This is not immediate mate. I recommend your smart opponents to sacrifice pieces to avoid mate or get mate.

He can still get a piece to block it, he just doesn’t have one right now

This is checkmate, no pawns can block(they are one step too ahead or just to far) and the other pieces are blocked by the pawns or just can't block/capture
