Who can define the kiss of death checkmate? It's time to share it, being the only kiss some of us  chess players (myself included) are going to get this valentines day.

It's when your queen checkmate your opponent king with a support so that the queen can't be captured. For example, scholar's mate

It’s when your queen is right next to the opponents king, but defended by another piece. The king will only have 2 escape squares, but if those are both blocked by their own pieces or the edge of the board, then that’s a kiss of death.

I like to do that by backing the king into a corridor surrounded by there peices. :3
