sorry to be narcississtic, but here's a nice little combination from a game. Here's the score; black is embarassingly behind on development and has his king in the center. What's the quickest way to finish him off?

cool but the title is incorrect - you won in 4 moves, it is no mate in 4.

Avatar of tarikhk

ok, should have been mate in three.

Avatar of Tactchess

No not at all. You can't checkmate him in the next 10 maybe 20 moves with correct play. Remember that you dont lose if your queen gets taken...

i think other move order switching move 2 and 3 should work

Black is not forced
