Peão-f7 ausente
Missing f7/c7 (c2/f2) pawn.
A ausência do peão em f7 torna mais longa a diagonal a2-g8. O peão f7 preto é importante
na defesa do Rei rocado. Se for movido, capturado ou trocado, o rei geralmente fica mais
vulnerável. Este é particularmente o caso quando as Brancas têm um Bispo colocado na
diagonal a2-g8 (geralmente na casa c4 ou b3). Neste padrão de mate, o Rei preto
normalmente está na casa h8 protegido de ataques por seus próprios peões em g7 e h7. O
problema é que, nessa situação, o Rei negro fica sem qualquer casa de fuga, já que o Bispo
branco controla a casa g8. Se as Brancas conseguirem dar xeque com a Rainha ou a Torre
ao longo da coluna h, o rei preto invariavelmente fica em grandes apuros. O objetivo das
Brancas é, portanto, abrir a coluna h a qualquer custo, o que normalmente significa um
sacrifício.
Principais componentes deste padrão de mate:

a) O peão-f7 está ausente;
b) O Rei negro normalmente está na casa h8, protegido de ataques por seus
próprios peões em g7 e h7;
c) O atacante tem a rainha ou um bispo na diagonal a2-g8 (geralmente nas casas c4
ou b3), controlando a casa ao lado do rei, limitando suas casas seguras à única
na qual ele se encontra;
Tune in for Part 2 in IM Daniel Rensch's "Mating Nets Installment" to the Patterns
Everyone Must Know video series. On the docket today? The Bishop, and all its glory!
Enjoy the missing f and h pawn patterns, Boden's Mate, the "Crafty Bishop", the Greek
Gift, and much more!
Great series. I like the checkmate patterns sub-series best of all! Quick request: would it
be possible to throw up a quick graphic at the end naming all the patterns reviewed in the
video? You did this for the pony mates, and I think it is very helpful. I personally use it
as a quiz to be sure that I've crystalized all the ideas in my mind. By my count (and without
rewatching, so maybe I'm wrong), there were 5 bishop nets in this video:
1) Missing f7/c7 (c2/f2) pawn.
2) Greek gift
3) Double bishop sac
4) Crafty bishop
5) Boden's mate
Incidentally, I really like knowing the names of the patterns, so kudos on that! Again, it
helps to crystalize them in the mind. FYI, for those who like this series, there is a great
book by Victor Khenkin called 1000 checkmate combinations (my favorite tactics book
ever, even though it only focuses on mate patterns) that is organized in a similar fashion
(patterns according to piece combination). My only complaint, is that it doesn't give the
patterns names, which, as I said, is really helpful!
Mate de Anastasia
O Mate de Anastasia ocorre quando o Rei oponente está preso numa borda do
tabuleiro e uma Torre (ou menos tradicionalmente, uma Dama) dá mate ao longo da
borda. Das três possíveis casas de fuga diante do Rei, duas estão bloqueadas por um
Cavalo, enquanto a terceira está ocupada por um peão do lado defensor .
Os principais componentes desta pequena armadilha são:
a) Rei negro numa borda do tabuleiro;

b) Um cavalo branco, fora das bordas, à uma distância de três casas do Rei
negro, ambos na mesma linha ou coluna; (Cavalo e Rei inimigos numa
mesma linha ou coluna, tendo duas casas entre eles);
c) Um peão negro, na casa ao lado do Rei negro, situado entre o cavalo e o rei.
Esta formação tem um perigo oculto especial para o defensor. O cavalo branco
bloqueia duas importantes casas de fuga do Rei negro e, junto com o peão negro, formam
uma muralha na frente do Rei, deixando-o encurralado na borda do tabuleiro. Assim, se
o atacante conseguir dar xeque com a rainha (ou com uma torre) ao longo da borda do
Rei e o defensor não dispuser de peças para interpor, o resultado será o xeque-mate.
Se necessário, o atacante deve fazer um grande sacrifício para forçar a abertura da
borda do Rei. Uma peça sacrifica-se para remover o peão protetor da casa h7. Outra peça
de longo alcance pode agir rapidamente e explorar o rei exposto para atacá-lo ao longo
da coluna h.
Observações:
 Normalmente, quem dá o xeque mate não é o cavalo, mas há exceções,
conforme veremos nos exemplos.
 Note a semelhança com o mate do corredor.
Mesmo os jogadores fortes podem ser vítimas deste mate! O nome Mate de Anastasia
é derivado de uma novela, Anastasia und das Schachspiel por Wilhelm Heinse, publicado
em 1903, que tem um exemplo no livro.
In chess, there are a variety of matting patterns. All follow basic principles: limit the
king from any square he can move to while threatening him without retaliation
from the other pieces. Commonly found is the Anastasia's Mate, used frequently
when "storming" a castled position.

Mate sufocado (smothered mate)
Considerado por muitos como uma das mais belas combinações táticas de todos os
tempos, o Mate Sufocado, também conhecido como Mate de Philidor, é aquele em
que o rei leva mate de um Cavalo, por estar preso por suas próprias peças. Costuma
envolver um sacrifício, em geral de Dama.
Os ingredientes essenciais são:

1º) O peão-f negro ausente (ou avançado)
2º) A incapacidade de bloquear um xeque da dama ao longo da diagonal a2-g8.
É importante ter este ponto em mente, se você está prestes a embarcar em uma série
de sacrifícios, culminando no mate sufocado.
3º) A possibilidade de o cavalo se posicionar com segurança na casa f7.
1º) A combinação de mate começa com um cheque da dama ao longo da diagonal

a2-g8.
Este cheque pode cobrir qualquer distância, ou seja, pode ser realizado com êxito
mesmo a partir de a2, contanto que o negro não consiga bloquear o xeque com um
peão ou uma peça. No entanto, quanto mais longe de e6 as brancas estiverem, menos
provável de obterem sucesso, pois aumentam-se as chances de o cheque ser
neutralizado com a interferência de um peão ou uma peça.
2º) O cavalo dá xeque na casa f7

Outro critério para a combinação ter sucesso é a capacidade do cavalo de alcançar a
casa f7, logo após o xeque da dama. Não importa a casa de onde o cavalo sai para
efetuar esse xeque em f7, mas é necessário que ele sobreviva ao xeque. Às vezes ele
pode ser capturado por uma torre em f8, o que significa que o único dano que as
negras sofreriam neste caso seria a perda da qualidade.
3º) O cavalo move-se para a casa h6, dando xeque ao Rei e simultaneamente
permitindo um xeque descoberto pela Dama.
Esse xeque duplo, desferido pelo Cavalo, força o rei a mover-se (aqui não é permitido
capturar o Cavalo), sendo que só pode fazê-lo para a casa h8, pois se 1...Rf8: 2. Df7#.
4º) A Dama dá um xeque em g8, onde está defendida pelo Cavalo.

Isso força a captura da Dama atacante por uma peça que não seja o Rei, o que faz com
que o Rei fique encurralado.
5º) O cavalo desfere o golpe mortal, dando mate em f7.

(2a) This is a basic example of a smothered mate. White

The essential in gredients are Black's missing (or
advanced) f-pawn and the inability to block the queen
check. This last point is important to bear in mind if you
are about to embark on a string of sacrifices culminating
in smothered mate.
Make sure you double-check if it seems your
opponent has fallen for a smothered mate trick. I once

seconded a player, who will probably prefer to remain
nameless, in the European Junior Championship and he

2b: after 13 hl These things can be overlooked in the excitement of

battle. The other main danger for prospective smothered
maters is the exchange sacrifice on f2 (f7). One should
always ensure that the queen has a safe passage home
or that the opponent can't gain enough time attacking it
to launch a strong attack.
Although smothered mates usually take place in the

The most common smothered mate pattern is shown in

the following diagram.
White has just delivered mate by Nf7.
Of course, smothered mate can occur on other parts of

the board and in other patterns, but the above is the
most commonly seen.
Unlike the Greek Sacrifice manoeuvre, there is no main

opening that leads to smothered mate. The Greek
Sacrifice in many cases arises from a French Defence in
which White has played e5 thus either driving away a
black piece from f6 or preventing a defensive piece
using that square.
Now some games to illustrate a few points.
It is not necessary that the mate takes place behind two

pawns sheltering the doomed king as the game Adler -
Wallhoever shows.
The game Rabovszky - Gyomber shows that White does

not have the prerogative on smothered mates.
An example of the mate being applied to Black on the

queenside can be seen in the game Azzouz - Deloffre.
Black carries out the mate against a White king whose

pawns have been weakened in the game Costello -
Schuh

Blackburne's Mate:
If you read my previous article on the Blackburne
Shilling Gambit then you're already familiar with this
racous character Joseph Henry Blackburne who
terrorized players with his swashbuckling style in the
late 1800s, early 1900s. It's not surprising they also
named a Mating Pattern after him, which he
allegedly used against his opponents. The pattern is
characterized by a knight on g5 - controlling the h7
square, and two bishops attacking both the dark and
light square diagonals around the king. Your
mission is to remove the defending pawn, usually
with a sacrifice, to expose the diagonal and mate on
h7 with the bishop. Let's take a look at a few
examples:
http://xn--checs-9ra.chess.com/article/view/mating-patters-1-gueridons-mate
What is Gueridon’s checkmate?

Gueridon’s checkmate pattern is reached when a king is checked from right in front by a
queen and the king cannot retreat diagonally backwards since those squares are
occupied by his own pieces. The diagram illustrates Gueridon’s checkmate pattern
What made this Gueridon’s checkmate pattern possible?

 The black king is exposed in the middle of the board.
 The important escape squares (e7 and g7) are occupied by black pieces.
 The white pawn on e4 is perfectly placed to support the active white queen on the f5
square.
 Black’s pieces are not in proper defensive positions.
This mating pattern and mating net similar to the Epaulette Mate*1, however the
blocking opposing pieces do not sandwich the opposing King and instead are located
one rank behind him. While the Epaulette Mate almost always will occur with the
opposing King sandwiched on a back rank (or in some rare cases on a wing), Gueridon's
Mate can occur with the opposing King more centrally located on the board. The
diagram below shows a couple of different positions for Gueridon's Mate as examples.
The game example below, for which the final checkmate position is Gueridon's Mate
occuring more centrally located, resulted from a trap which can occur in Philidor's
Defense that Black either forgot or unknowingly fell into while playing the game.

Epaulette Mate
Epaulette Mate. This mate occurs when the opposing King is sandwiched in between
two pieces on the back rank with the Queen delivering mate from the opposing player's
third rank vertically aligned with the King. The name derives from the similarity to the
epaulettes (shoulder boards) on military uniforms. As with many mates, the lack of
King safety is the prime factor in this mate, although often it results simply as a
"haymaker" blow coming out of the blue as "unseen" by the opposing player, who
usually blunders into it. The game example presented below is one where Black simply
did not appreciate the defense and protection afforded by Black's Knight, and then
blunders twice in a row to give White an Epaulette Mate.
