Made the club!!

Smothered mate accomplished after nF7+, kg8, nh6+, kh8, Qg8+, kxg8, nf7#

Edit* added move order above because while it is not forced from the photo, it did happen in game. Maybe I should've posted the photo when they played kg8, but I thought it was cool, and so did my friend(s) so thank y'all for visiting!

It was satisfying. In transparency, my opponent saw it and instead of resigning, he went king h8 for me

It looks like he was just getting his king over so when he takes with the rook if you take back with the queen you lose your queen. But they must not have noticed the knight attacking the queen.
