I don't see how else can black mate in that position.

White to move and do something dirty
something with Be8, Bxf7+ Kf8 and Nxe6

ok how about this:
1...Qb4 2.Nxf8 Ba3 3.Qxf7+ Kd8 4.d6 Qh4+ 5.Kg8 Qh7#.


but of course, white needs to miss mate in 1 for that. still only reasonable thing I could come up with. but I'm pretty sure it involves a Qb4 and Ba3 sort of thing, if not Rc8 and Qxd4.

a yeah. Ba6 sorry. again: drunk & blindfold 🙂. (but to be honest, I do that kind of mistake all the time. and I do it seriously a lot if there's opposite side castling involved). Besides, I'm not a GM like he is 🙂

Yes all of them were "rated". Of course I'm not going to post the games where such frivolity didn't quite work out the way it was supposed to and these opponents trampled me 😛 (from the positions it's clear they could outplay me easily yet they fall for this kinda crap)
