Another example of scholars mate.

1. e4	Normal opening.



1... a5	Pretty dumb move.



2. Qh5	Queen out.
	1 comment sayv (1200) on 26-May-11: In scholars mate, the queen can move to f3 aswell.


2... b5	Sacrificing the pawn.



3. Bc4	Bishop doesn't take it.
	1 comment sayv (1200) on 26-May-11: This a rather dumb move; white seems to be rather generous. But I guess black doesn't seem like the brightest players!


3... c5	Another pawn moved forward.
	1 comment sayv (1200) on 26-May-11: I don't think anyone can be that bad at chess!!!!!!!!


4. Bxf7#	It's checkmate.
