When your opponent lets you CHECKMATE with a SMILE | Nikolas vs Arjun | Dubai Open 2023

It is not every day in top-level chess that you get to see a checkmate on the board. But in this unique game, the opponent not only allowed checkmate but also made sure that it is a forced checkmate with a smile. Don’t miss the end of the video.
In round six of the Dubai Open 2023, GM Nikolas Theodorou (2591) faced GM Arjun Erigaisi (2701) who was looking for his third win in the tournament. Arjun convincingly wins and in the later part of the interview breaks down the game and also mentions how his opponent allowed the checkmate with a smile.

(4/4) On another note I could do with some tips on how to get a good sleep. It seems like I am a fully fledged insomniac. 😵‍💫
I was in bed at 1am last night but didn't even manage to get 1 minutes sleep after tossing and turning all night. Been awake for about 40 hours now. 😱

(3/4) I missed one very likely obvious winning move.
Here I played Bg2? but I should just play Qh6!
For some reason I had missed ...Qxh6 Bxh6 ...Nxc3 a3! Which is game over.
In the end I lost 😔 after Johann played excellently.
