Mate with Knight

Avatar of ShepMaster

This is from a game I recently played on Live Chess.

5 mintue game, I started as black.

 Although i was playing against a lower rated person i still feel like it was a great checkmate with knight that the outcome was either i go up alot of material or checkmate.

As this was on live that's most likely the reason the mate wasn't discovered. If this was correspondance chess it would probably be a different outcome.  

This is my first posted game so hope it works out well.

nice checkmate, however white mated himself with 5 Bb2? 5. d3 would have been better.

 Definitely....but how often do you make your opponent think of the King's escape route so early in the game?  The offensive drive on black's part is like lightening!
