It's really fun when you play it.
A beautiful smothered mate
Nice miniature game; I believe that the smothered mate is probably one of the most stylistic finishes a chess game can offer, when in the right context ![]()
Your comment about the smothered mate being rare due to being on the edge (versus the much more common version in the corner) reminded me of this game of mine I still reminisce about. https://www.chess.com/forum/view/game-showcase/romantic-style-finish-true-lone-knight-checkmate-on-the-edge
The following game is one of my best games. I was white in the following game.
