Your opponent needs to learn the Grob a little better than that.

Its not about beating a player once with a foolsmate.
Its about beating a player with a foolsmate more than once.

It's the first time I've beaten someone like that. At first I didn't realize it was mate, then she realized she couldn't capture, couldn't move her king, or couldn't block. I was as stunned as she was.
