Coffee for Dessert

This is a cute checkmate to aim for. It’s brilliant to find the double-check with no escape. It’s cute though. The opponent should see it coming. But they won’t. They are afraid of something else. They’ll let the cute checkmate slip past their guard because they fear the unknown difficulties lying beyond the horizon!

King’s Gambit, best by test read all about it, see you next Tuesday!!
