Amazing checkmate ! Garry Kasparov tryed and could not solve it !
SebLeb failed to tell the whole story, and that's why this seems ridiculous. The challenge was:Construct a game that begins with 1.e4 and ends on move 5 with the move knight takes rook checkmate.
Please tell the whole story.

it is a composed game that garry gave to his students and then he tried it and he couldnt solve it.
Again, that fails to explain anything.
Ahhh. Ces gens-là veulent tu expliquer tout dans tes postes.
que veut- il savoir ?
pathetic.
would have been more impressive had it been a discovered check under-promotion double check and mate, as I played once in a correspondence game.
I hope you thanked your opponent after that game
