Post your best miniatures here

A nice game I just had:

Thats pretty much the same as the scholars mate,99% of players would have seen that

After my opponent's twelfth move, I was worried. I found the only move that doesn't lose. In the complications, my opponent faltered.

What is "undefined"? Does it mean "unclear"?

Did you just copy the chess.com analysis with little thought?

And it's not even a miniature!

I did not use chess.com's analysis.

Undefined is box; that is, only move. Copy and paste from pgn to threads here often leave out or alters the annotation symbols.

Checkmate on move 26 is close enough to a miniature, especially as Black was completely lost after move 17.

You can see these annotations without errors introduced by chess.com at http://chessskill.blogspot.com/2017/05/uh-oh.html

For the record, I only use engines to check my own analysis. 

Here is a game against a friend I played, down a queen at start. While not technically a miniature, the game really ended around the 26th move. Was quite a challenge, I had to think very hard to create some kind of attack in there!

Was being queenless at start a challenge? And if im correct u were white?

I was black. I decided to go queenless, because my friend was pretty new to chess, and I wanted to give her a chance. Even so, playing with a queen down is no joke!

i will post more here https://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess-openings/win-in-less-than-20-moves-with-black?page=1

In this game, White adopts a subpar opening strategy--the cowardly Exchange--and gains a strong initiation that leads to winning the opponent's queen within the requisite number of moves to constitute a miniature, then checkmate follows a few moves later.

What say you @Barefoot_Player?

That aint a miniature

I say, by your own words, not a miniature. So why do post games that are not miniatures? I too have played some wonderful games that are more than 25 moves. But I don't post them here.

Do you believe you, or your games. are superior to everyone else('s)?

I managed to redeem an idiotic 8.g4 with a mate in 18 in this Sicilian structure...

This game was horrid on both sides, but it was over before move 25 even though more moves were played.

Z.,

"This game was horrid on both sides, but it was over before move 25 even though more moves were played."

LOL - then the game was not over according to you. Not over means not over.
