pure mate, or clean mate, a checkmate that meets the following criteria: unoccupied squares in the king's field are attacked once only; pieces that function as self-blocks[d] are not under attack unless necessarily pinned; and the mating move is not a double check unless this is necessary to prevent the defender from interposing a man or capturing a checking piece.
