Checkmate By King
Sort:
Wonder of any games where the king checkmates:
Here's a made up game:
You CAN'T checkmate by a K. These are both checkmate by R. Duh.

I remember the Lasker v. Thomas example. The checkmate would have been even prettier if Lasker had chosen 18. O-O-O# instead of 18. Kd2#.

what we're posting are games where the king delivers checkmate (executing the mating move).
The OP's question is, precisely: "Can a king checkmate a king...?"
Duh!!!

Mr. MeTristan (post #21), very nice (cough...cough) except it is illegal to put your K in check.

you can! The one who is faster capturing the opponents king wins the game...
Horrid choice of pieces!
Now, all these are just examples of discovered attacks, in which the K played a role. And post #21 is illegal.

No it's not. Did the rook move?

@Jion_Wansu: The Rook is the checkmating piece in both examples. The King moves would not have won the games if not for the Rooks.
Can a king checkmate a king (I already know the answer)?
