A New Mate


As if Black did not have enough problems when he plays the 3...Na5 "no name" defense, in the following game White introduces a new way to execute the second player.


Yreval - egoteamo
blitz, FICS, 2012


1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Na5 




Asking for trouble. Yreval is happy to oblige.


4.Bxf7+ Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Ke8 6.Qh5+ Ke7 




7.Qf7+ Kd6 8.d4 c6 


Now, a dozen games in The Database have the checkmate 9.Nc4+ Nxc4 10.Bf4+ Ne5 11.Bxe5#.


Instead Yreval goes his own way.


9.Bf4 Kc7 10.Nc4+ Bd6 11.Bxd6 checkmate
