Named Checkmate Positions
Sort:
hmm... I don't think that's what he meant... mate... NO I haven't heard of any Chess mating position other than those.
I certaintly have! There's Anastasia's mate, The See-Saw (my favorite!), Arabian mate, the Blackburne mates, um... The Fischer Trap, The Greek Gift mates...
There are TONS more, I have'nt really searched around myself, but maybe google "Checkmates" or something!
Sorry for the sexual innuendo, there might be youngsters online, but I was genuine about names of other checkmating configurations.
good idea.

… I thought it was a good name when I named this checkmate: (idk if it already has a name)
I called it the pigs mate, because 2 rooks on the seventh rank are called pigs
my friend searched up pigs mate
luckily he had safe search
I will never use that name of that mate again
Since I have been a member at Chess.com I have heard of several mating positions which have nicknames. The three that I am aware of is smothered mate, fool's mate, and scholar's mate. Are there any others?
