I just finished a game where I won with a mating pattern shown to me by greenpawn. Is there a name for this type of mate? It is tricky and I do not think I would have seen it if not for that thread from long ago.
I mean dropping the queen inside the knight from the g7 square instead of taking the trapped rook. This one is backwards. I would think it would normally take place on the b7 side of the board.

I have spent some time trying to find a name for it, and while I would not call it an "Anastasia's Mate", it does seem to be a little similar.
Just ran into this mate doing a puzzle. Never even considered it. At least not until I saw the puzzle, I was thinking does this really work? Then decided yes.
