Your next move is to move the queen to h4 and the game is over. This will open up the diagonal that leads to the king. Next, your opponent will move his pawn from f2 to f3. This will allow you to capture one of the center squares and will make your first move. When this happens, you must over your own pawn from e7 to e5. The game starts with the white pawn (Opponent) moving his pawn from g2 to g4. The fool’s mate allows you to finish the game within 2 moves! Even before your opponent realizes it, you would have finished the game! This is the oldest and most popular quick game strategy that is employed regularly. Conclusion to the fastest ways to checkmate.The scholar's mate has sometimes also been given other names in English, such as Schoolboy's Mate (which in modern English perhaps better connotes the sense of 'novice' intended by the word Scholar's) and Blitzkrieg (German for "lightning war"), meaning a quick and short engagement. In Danish, Finnish, Swedish and Norwegian: School Mate.In Serbian, Croatian, Danish, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Polish (where Fool's mate is known as scholar's mate), Slovakian and Slovenian: Shoemaker's Mate.In Belorussian, Latvian, Russian and Ukrainian: Children's Mate.In Persian, Greek and Arabic: Napoleon's Plan.In some languages, including Dutch, Estonian, Esperanto, French, German, Czech, Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish: Shepherd's Mate.Although the Napoleon Opening is never seen in high-level competition, the Danvers Opening has occasionally been tried in tournaments by GM Hikaru Nakamura to achieve a practical middlegame position for White. The Danvers Opening (1.e4 e5 2.Qh5) and the Napoleon Opening (1.e4 e5 2.Qf3) are both aimed at threatening scholar's mate on the next move (3.Bc4).In the Frankenstein–Dracula Variation of the Vienna Game (1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Nf6 3.Bc4 Nxe4), threatening scholar's mate with 4.Qh5 is the only way for White to play for an advantage.The Fried Liver Attack even involves a sacrifice of the knight on f7. After 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6 (the Two Knights Defense), White's most popular continuation is 4.Ng5 attacking f7, which is awkward for Black to defend.Should White renew the Qxf7 threat with 4.Qf3, Black can easily defend by 4.Nf6 (see diagram), and develop the f8-bishop later via fianchetto (.Bg7).Īlthough a quick mate on f7 is almost never seen in play above beginner level, the basic idea underlying it-that f7 and f2, squares defended only by the kings, are weak and therefore good targets for early attack-is the motivating principle behind a number of chess openings. d5, gaining time by attacking the c4-bishop and attaining easy equality).Īfter 1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nc6 3.Bc4 g6 4.Qf3 Nf6, Black has successfully defended against the scholar's mate attempt.Īfter 1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nc6 3.Bc4, the cleanest way to defend against the mate threat is 3.g6. Openings such as the French Defense (1.e6) or the Scandinavian Defense (1.d5) render scholar's mate unviable, while other openings such as the Sicilian Defense (1.c5) make 2.Bc4 a bad move (1.e4 c5 2.Bc4 ? e6, intending. It is not difficult to parry, however.Īfter 1.e4, Black can play a semi-open defense instead of 1.e5. Unlike the fool's mate, which rarely occurs at any level, games ending in scholar's mate are quite common among beginners.
Thus, the text "one houſe" describing the first move (advancing one square) may have been a mistake.
However, the document treated a then-exotic subject during the early days of printing consequently the publisher attached a list of errata at the back, following publication. Beale's text was an early modern account of the rules and tactics of chess, including concepts such as the ability of a pawn to advance two squares on its first move, en passant, forks, and exchange. Beale, The Royall Game of Chesse-Play Īll of the details are coherent from the modern perspective except for the first moves by each player-if Black's pawn advances only one square, this prevents White's bishop from supporting the white queen to give mate.
