Originally posted by tmetzlerI'm not as impressed by the game. Black missed an easy victory: 6...Qxg5! and she is simply up a piece.
I second this thought. The chances of you playing like this after never playing before. And just recently started studying are astonomical.
Either you have played before or your name starts with an F and ends with a Z.

My shortest mate was against an A player in just 9 moves! (although he's not an A player now).

Originally posted by manofsteel6764The shortest possible complete game of chess, "Fool's Mate", lasts just two moves. Only Black can win:
fool's mate is the fastest. it is for three moves. The opponet opens with their bishop and knight pawns while you open with you king's pawn and then move out the bishop. The opponet will be pinned in. It is shorter than the four move sholar's mate.
1.f3(or f4) e6(or e5) 2.g4 Qh4#
White's two moves are interchangeable.
