A quick reminder

A few hours ago I decided to refresh my knowledge concerning N+B checkmate patterns... After doing so, I played a game of classical to start the active part of my day ^^ The game itself wasn´'t too special, my opponent blundered a piece in the opening. However, I want to show it to you anyway, because I was able to convert into a KNB vs K endgame, which I was able to win due to today's training - So just see this post as a reminder that there might be a real possibility to get stuck with N+B vs K (if you don't know how to win this scenario already) at some point in time. There is a great video by @Chess-Network covering the topic, which might prevent you from an unpleasant surprise someday :)

This is my first post, so I hope the formatting and embedding worked out fine.
Nice._. Id prolly just run out of time ._ but it is nice to see._. The 2 bishop one is another uncommon mate pattern
Hey Jerry, Magnus was playing football yesterday, I'm guessing that's why he didn't play in the tilted arena! They were just talking about it on the live broadcast. @Chess-Network
This inspired me to brush back up on my KBN mate. Thanks for the cool game!
