I got my first smothered mate. Thought i'd share it with you to see what you think. It was a bullet game so it's not the most accurate but i'm pretty happy with it anyway. Thanks for your interest.

I would have opted for 9 Ne4 to get at Black's self inflicted hole on d6.     

In a bullet game, anything can happen.    you had a good eye for this tactical possibility starting with the sharp 13 Bxf7+    well done !

Ah yeah, good one. That's the natural move. 

 

And thanks for checking it out too *Strangemover* xD
