wow, this was a tough puzzle. first one in a long time that i've had to use the help button. well played by black though. winning the rook and trapping the queen so it can't move. Great puzzle

Is this the end of the game for white?...

 

Sure white loses rook for knight, but what happens next?... White has passed pawn, still has queen on board and bishop protecting pawn.  Would be brave play by black to extend King to win pawn with Queens still on the board!  

 

I guess Black would eventually secure game, but I imagine there would still be a few tight moments ahead. 

 

Nice Puzzle...  Definately not easy!  :-)

what if instead of 2.Bg2 white plays 2.Rxd4 ? I would expect 2..Qxf2 3.Kh1

How can then black keep profitably on ?

Thanks for comments
