There aren't any single moves that will put a king in checkmate instantly, obviously, but there are a few ways to checkmate a king quickly.

The Fool's Mate, which is done in two moves, goes:

  1. f3 e5
  2. g4 Qh4#

There are a few variations on this move.

The Scholar's Mate is more likely to happen (i.e. the opponent isn't an outright idiot) and happens quite often among beginning Chess players. It occurs in four moves:

  1. e4 e5
  2. Qh5 Nc6
  3. Bc4 Nf6?
  4. Qxf7#

You can look these two up on Wikipedia for more information.

How do you make checkmates in 14 steps in chess?

Checkmating someone in chess depends on your opponents moves as well as your own. There are far to many combinations of moves available to give you a step by step guide in 14 moves. The minimal amount of moves I know how to make a checkmate is 4 moves using your queen and right side bishop & the single pawn blocking both of their paths.

You can't. It's impossible. Even should one side make a deliberate attempt to lose, this cannot be accomplished. Moves may be made ad infinitum with the same result - no winner.

What is the poisoned pawn in chess?

A poisoned pawn is one which is left out in the open as a target for an opponent's piece in order to lure that opponent into capturing what looks like an easy capture. But it is a trap that has many many uses. Say an opponent has a piece that is guarding a square you want to go to in order to checkmate the king. The pawn is moved to a square where it can be taken by that protecting piece. If the opponent goes for that pawn it moves to a spot where it no longer guards the spot you want. You then move to the now unprotected square and checkmate the king. So the opponent gobbled up an insignificant pawn only to be poisoned by the lack of protection. Actually, any piece can be used as a poisoned piece if used properly in the right game situation.


How do you do the 5 move checkmate?

There are dozens of possibilities for a 5 move checkmate. You could use the 4 move checkmate "Scholar's Mate" and just delay a move in it, you could use a reversed Scholar's Mate and just use it as black. Or, you could find a different combination such as this sequence: 1. d2d4, e7e5 2. qd3, nc6 3. qb3, d7d6 4. bg5, qxg5 and 5. nf3 qc1#. Or any number of similar sequences.
