Answers.Body: <p>Most of the games that end in checkmate are where the weak side allows checkmate for whatever reason (he thinks it's a nice win / checkmate, to ruin the publishability of the game, etc), but the strongest example I can think of where a player allowed mate on the board accidentally is Deep Fritz vs Kramnik:

Comments.Text: I don't see the point, very awesome games resign with forced mates while others don't... why would anybody be interested in just one half, while the other half is exactly the same?.. maybe you just want to filter out winning by material advantage, in hope to find games with awesome chain mates? if that is the case, there are ways to search them, just improve your search skills with google

Title: Professional games that ended with mate
ThreadText: # Professional games that ended with mate
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2013-08-30)
  
  What are some professional games where the losing side did not resign before receiving mate?
  
  And how sure are people of the record? In old books they did not care much for complete historical accuracy, so a reference that makes the mate story believable would be better.
