Hi there.

00:02.970 --> 00:13.470
In this lecture, it is Black Plan Chameides and the mate pattern is called the suffocation mate, and

00:13.470 --> 00:17.160
it's sometimes known as a semi smothered mate.

00:19.580 --> 00:24.950
So let's play five seconds, pause, video, what would you play here, Checo Chiang's.

00:27.210 --> 00:34.470
And we've seen that in the Art of Checkmate check all the escape's, cries of the king where and deliver

00:34.470 --> 00:42.420
a kind of Chameides OK, it's Rook Jiwon check.

00:46.200 --> 00:50.110
That lowers the risk away from aphthous, so we've created the kind of weakness of the last move.

00:50.610 --> 00:56.160
And in fact, the NEUTZE can now visit AFTA without being taken and because the road covers the escape

00:56.160 --> 01:01.400
squidgy two, there's one key escape square, which is Jitu.

01:02.670 --> 01:06.080
And so this is a semi smothered mate in a way.

01:06.180 --> 01:09.810
You can see that if there was a due to this would be smothered by it.

01:10.290 --> 01:14.520
So it's like a special case of semi's, as it's sometimes called.

01:14.700 --> 01:18.350
I think I prefer that myself to suffocation made.

01:18.600 --> 01:20.160
This is the personal preference.

01:21.660 --> 01:22.470
I think.

01:22.470 --> 01:29.220
I think I know want be thinking too much about Hitch Hitchcock, you know, murder mysteries and drama

01:29.220 --> 01:30.630
during a chess game, too much.

01:30.990 --> 01:36.210
So the semi's above those may actually as an alternate kind of label.

01:37.140 --> 01:41.610
But generally, yeah, I'm not looking at this less during a game.

01:41.610 --> 01:49.500
I'll be looking at high priority forcing moves and getting excited, hopefully when there's a lack of

01:49.500 --> 01:55.590
escape squads looking especially hard for checking all checks, all the weird and wonderful combinations

01:55.590 --> 01:58.680
that could exist to try and get a mating pattern.

01:59.400 --> 02:02.580
But it is nice to sort of classify these mating patterns.

02:03.030 --> 02:05.080
So this is the suffocation checkmate.

02:05.490 --> 02:07.030
So it's a little bit like a swap mate.

02:07.080 --> 02:11.040
But there is one key, ASCAME Square, which is covered by the rook.

02:11.220 --> 02:14.160
The knight is the piece that delivers the Chapei.

02:14.160 --> 02:19.110
It has to be a knight in the special type of checkmate pattern, OK.

02:20.150 --> 02:20.780
And so much.
