One of my favourites taking just 5 moves 🙂

Game 1940006

and this one just 6 moves

Game 2100258

Both opponents a good 150 points better than me as well 🙂

My quickest, just 4 moves

Game 1169276

Here is a game I played earlier, but although I like chess, I don't know the names of any of the standard opening moves. Perhaps someone could explain my own tactics to me?Game 3254188

with this blunder, it might as well have been over...
Game 1950514

both of these were me losing in under ten...
this one, i just fell into a beginner-trying-to-play-kings-gambit-but-doesn't-know-how kind of trap
Game 1904926

this was my second game on the site, and i was scared to death...
Game 1904837

I went through a phase of boredom here and decided to set up several games one move away from the fool's mate and see how many people would accept my game. Listed below are some of the many examples: 🙂

Game 3057795
Game 2897104
Game 2897060

Edit: I just flipped through my games and discovered that in one game I played, which was an actual, rated game, my opponent actually played right into the fool's mate...I don't know if it was intentional or not, but he did... Game 2895013 😛

Here's another mate in under 10...but it's just another scholar's mate...

Game 2894846

(2007 Championship)
Forced mate next move ....K-d8, Qxf8#
Game 2970621

when you took his black's queen -- he went brain dead, don't get too over confident.

Ahh, the smell of fool's mate =) Game 2451306
