Originally posted by LordOfTheChessboardpawn on seventh rank he moves in front of it I push the king in behind, he moves his passed pawn to the seventh rank and I push my other to the 6th rank, then he queens his pawn and I push my second to the seventh rank and say checkmate. So He had a passed pawn he was pushing also. The best part was he got his queen one move before my pawn king checkmate, that is a look on an opponents face I won't forget for a long time. He just stared for about a 20 seconds, then he got up and left the room.
