[TO PROSPECTIVE READER: PLEASE IGNORE THIS FIRST PUZZLE AND GO TO THE LAST ONE WHERE IT IS DONE PROPERLY]

Hey guys check out this neat little puzzle from a game I just played - it's a mate in 2 for white (I think the title gives it away though):

Just because you repeated the move in your game doesnt mean you have to do it in the puzzle Laughing. It probably would have been better to omit moves 23 and 24.

Pretty neat but I guess it should've been 23. Nc7# instead of 25. Nc7#  I mean moves 23,24 werent required right?

Yes you are both right of course... I thought that I had eliminated those moves from the puzzle alltogether.

I'll repost it.

THanks

Hi again, as promised here is the puzzle properly done and reposted:

This is the way the puzzle should be done - I will try to remove the old one!

I actually made a mistake in the original game, and I realized that right from the beginning but I made a mistake in how I posted the first puzzle so that it actually showed the sequence that I did in the game, rather than the best one: i.e. the one I should have played right away.

Thanks for reading and for the feedback!
