Yes, I also agree with the two of you. Actually, I got it but what if white will not take Black's King? Anyway, black is winning afterallCool.

It was quite obvious from the beginning that this was not a mate-in-two puzzle. Otherwise, it would have been very frustrating to spend time trying to solve it.

 

You should understand that if you claim to have a mate-in-two puzzle, you are claiming that it is a forced mate in two.

Sorry about that. It completely slipped my mind that the mate wasn't forced. Black will win but its not mate in two. There's probably no point in changing it now.
