Checkmate By En Passant ?
Is there a way to search and find a game that I won via en passant checkmate? I can't seem to figure out how. I have the game but can't find.
Cute and clever!
But... there is nothing new under the sun, is there? Here's a link that gives many more examples, the shortest of which is in only 6 moves!

Also, replying to TheNotoriousCTB, it might be possible to find a game ending in en passant/checkmate by using CQL. But, I'm guessing this game of yours exists within chess.com or some similar online portal, and I don't know if that's possible or not.
Good luck!

I played one such game, which can be found at http://chicagochess.blogspot.com/2010/06/en-passant-mate.html. As I mention there, there was also a game on FICS a few years ago that ended in a mate by en passant, which was published in Chess Life. Unfortunately I don't have it at hand.
Whatever was used to embed the game is no longer functioning.
Chessbase.com just had an article about Nick Pert winning the British Championship, including a game in which he checkmated his opponent via en passant!
