Here’s a mating pattern worth knowing and a way of playing against the Scandinavian worth knowing. The Peruvian master Canal won this in a simul.


Solution:

The game went this way: 1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Qxd5 3.Nc3 Qa5 4.d4 c6 5.Nf3 Bg4 6.Bf4 e6 7.h3 Bxf3 8.Qxf3 Bb4 9.Be2 Nd7 10.a3 0–0–0 and now finished this brilliant way: 11.axb4 Qxa1+ 12.Kd2 Qxh1 13.Qxc6+ bxc6 14.Ba6#
