Emu, is that your own game?

I trust you know the famous game where the move could have been played but wasn't:

And then there's this one, with 0-0#

I hated how Laker didn't castle checkmate.

 

Everytime I see the end of the game, I cringe because of this.

It's even better than checkmating with a pawn tbh.

And now I see the Lasker game is how this thread began.  Sorry -- I thought this was the first page.  Unless I missed it, though, the Morphy example hadn't been mentioned yet.

Not exactly the same as castling, but you don't see this sort of checkmate every day.

Yes, from 1974, against D. Paul-Elias.

I learned that I earned a site award for 69...Kc7#.

I was completely busted until my opponent let me promote a pawn, and then used his queen to take one of my other pawns. I moved my king off the back rank.

Nice threads. It would be better if you guys share the chess game. 

 

As you can see, I was completely busted after he won my queen until the last two moves.

True Lasker was an unbelievable man. Whenever I get the Lasker trap to work I take a minute of silence.

And the world is a better place for 60 seconds.

I did a 0-0-0# in a game long ago. I should post a link here. 

I'm at work now.
