I delivered mate using en passant today. Educational for the 6 year old I was playing. Are there more illustrious examples?

Will try and post later but he avoided a mate by a bishop by playing f2f4 but mated by the same bishop after e4f3

In that case you could have just played Bxf4 mate. 🙂

If the g pawn were on g3 then en passant would have been the way to go.
