Hey everyone,

I am curious to see everyone’s favorite checkmate that they have achieved.
 
This is a game that I recently played and loved that there were three queens on the board, two of which caused a beautiful checkmate pattern.

Let's see some checkmates!

It wasn't weak until the king went to hide at h8...

Lol. Your opponent tried to play the Traxler, but it was the wrong move order. This is how you play the Traxler if others try to use the fried liver attack against you (I missed the mate I studied for):

A game I played recently. I was planing on forking the king and his bishop but I accidentally mated him with my rook, knight and bishop
