I dont really get this....

Sorry if this is a stupid question but what was the point of 1.Rb7 from Black?

Also after 4. Rb1 from White what if Black played Qxb1?

planeden

not sure about the first move yet, but after 4...Qxb1 then 5. Rd5#

oh, 1...Rb7 prevents 2. Rxh7#

Mottian

If black doesn't play 1...Rb7 then he loses faster: 1.Kf6 h6? 2.Rc5+! dxc5 3.Rd5#

Sorry if this questions sounds...I don't know, but what was the point of Rb7 from black? They just gave up a rook for free.

 

Other than that, pretty good puzzle.
