Mato, in Polish chess we say 'szech' when the queen is under attack. It's unofficial and never used in tournament chess, many people never use this expression, but nevertheless - yes, there is such a thing :) When the king is attacked, we say 'szach' or 'szach mat' (check or checkmate).
I've heard "checking" the queen called "queen danger," spoken aloud as a courtesy. But then I got older and figured it out that masters or above probably didn't say it during tourneys. But I've never heard of a term for when a queen is unable to get out of danger.
+Robi_CK Not to resign could also be a sign of lacking sportsmanship - it wastes time and shows no respect for the opponents ability to spot that move. On the other hand... I personally never resign because I mostly play with less skilled friends (that very non-sportsmanship provided me with a lot of wins - mostly victories not worth bragging about).
+Mirdha Sultan Actually, though the Dutch is indeed tricky to play and has weaknesses, being fairly easy to counter by an experienced player, in this game, black opened poorly and paid the price.
The story with my watching Mato's videos: first i like and then I watch because I will surely like :)
In order to save the queen the king sacrificed his life. I admire his bravery!
Beautiful! One of the best mates I have seen in a while :)
This is an extremely beautiful game.

I'm Polish and i didn't know about "szech". Good to know.. :P

made my day !!! as usual, it is very interesting ! 10x, Mato !
Master attack, these kind of games are amazing to watch
found the move ahah afterbwatching almost 20-30 videos of you this time found that Queen ♕ move thanks for the video mato keep it going
My daily brain training, thanks Mato.
thank you Mato great game
what a nice and well calculated combinations!
Great game thanks!
Great game! I think I've never seen any win with the Dutch Defense though...
a great great game !
brilliant attack. he played like a computer, very precise
amazing move!
I actually saw that move. ( :
I think that resigning just one move before mate in 1 is kinda unsportsmanship... If I were black, I'd let my opponent play the mating move.
resigning means "I accept, that you did better" if someone doesn't resign in time, than he is unrespectful.

+11Kralle Yeah same. For me actually giving mate is most fun moment in chess. If someone resigned just before that I personally would get upset
+Malusi Dzidzienyo No you not :) Loss is a loss. Even Mato himself jokes about that in the latest chess lecture video
Couldn't find that Q move, although I did find the N follow-up. Whether I would have in a live game is dubious though. :)
excelent game
WoW!!!
Also found nxh7 pretty strong attack i'd say don't you think ?
Is Nb6 good to stop white from playing Nd5?
his bear chest ? why not his wolf chest ?
Evgeni what you call it ? is that his name ?
i see that match in my brother's chess book... :D
This is the reason why you are not advised to play 'Dutch Defense' if you are on black side
