Classic smothered mate, unusual with Bishop instead of Pawn at g7.
1. Qd5+ Kh8 2. Nf7+ Kg8 3. Nh6+ Kh8 4. Qg8+ R:g8 5. Nf7#
You said it geeker! One of those patterns that even a patzer like me can see without any effort! And such a wonderful thing to play at the board!
Suffocation mate is something you hardly ever get to play, but even when the threat of is hanging in the air, its beauty is to be appreciated.

Nuff Said!
i saw this in a movie recently – and had it “on board” last sunday – in a non rated game – (the bishop was a knight and i “pushed the black chumps”) :-))
greetings vohaul
