Joined 08 Mar '11 Moves 12351 Thought it would be interesting to see all the checkmates in under ten moves, since the the thread looking for mates under twenty is going so well.
Just like with that other thread, post only if the game has mate in under ten moves, or if mate can be forced in under ten.

A very odd game in the French defence. I'm not sure if black is better after the 9th move, but his 10th move made things a lot easier.
Joined 21 Feb '06 Moves 6830 I think I've posted this one on here before. My daughter (aged ten) was White:
1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Ng5 Ne7 5. Bxf7#
She took over a minute to play her fifth move because the urge to win her opponent's queen with 5. Nxf7 was so strong.

EDIT: Can someone tell me how I include the full board in the post, like the other submissions on the thread, please?1) Click on the game.
2) Click on "Get PGN" to the right of the board.
3) Copy the text.
4) Past the text into your post
5) put the PGN tags around the text of the game you copied, meaning put "pgn" and "/pgn" with brackets over them--->[]<---those things.
I'll post your game in the meantime.
