Most Perfect 7 Move Checkmate Ever

Sort:

This is about the most perfect example of the 7 move checkmate I've ever seen, and I had the luck to be able to play it.

Its not perfect at all, almost every move by both sides deserved a ??

@assault you ever heard of Fried Liver Attack? I was initially going for Fried Liver Attack (or a position similar to), but after 2. b5?, I had to do c4 to be able to put my bishop on the c4 square. And while black made blunders galore, my only weak move was 5. Bc4??, as pointed out by supreme_commander (at this point, I was so focused on capturing the h rook that i didn't even notice the available capture.

A perfect checkmate is a mate where every piece of a mating army is involved, and every square of a mated king surroundings is covered exactly once. So, position W: Kb6, Qe8 B: Kb8, is a perfect mate, but position W: Kb6, Qd8 B: Kb8 - is not, because c7 is attacked by both king and queen.

This is just a bunch of blunders

Dude, you're a 900, get over yourself. Both sides combined for 5 blunders: 2. ... b5, 3. c4, 3. ... Ba6, 5. Bc4, and 6. ... Bxe4.

But 7. Bxf7# was a good move.

You're bound to play much better games, but enjoy any victory you can.

Hey, don't let all these stuck-up higher rated players get you down. Keep working and learning.

That Mate has happened at least once to everyone that plays here. We all have bad days.

Both sides had a lot of inaccuracies. Not a perfect checkmate but it works

If I had a dollar for every blunder in this game, I'd have enough dollars to go to college.

sorry to tell you, but both of you were blundering like crazy. It's just that you were lucky. If you were playing against a 1100, that trap would have never worked.
