Can anyone explain why this is brilliant/a winning move?

I knew this was the right move in the moment, but when I look at what the next moves should look like, it’s just exd4 which is what black plays. I ended up winning this game but I feel like there’s an easy checkmate early on here. Could anyone shed some light on this for me?

Brilliant Move?

Why was this love from my opponent considered brilliant? He blunders his Queen.

Probably one of my best games. Against a opponent that is stronger than me and I was losing.

Mate in 1, I found today

I'm only 500 ELO, so pretty pleased that I saw this one

White to Play, Mate in 2

Oh no

They fell for it. They said “Wow” and resigned immediately after

My weirdest looking checkmate yet

Why would Black play this?

I was playing computer and it played this move and I mated in 2. But for life of me I can't figure out why it would move the defender. Is there actually any tactic I am missing?

might not be very impressive, but I found my first forced mate in more than two moves
