Castling to Safety... NOT!!

Hey friends,

I took a small break from playing only Bongcloud openings and came across a funny move while playing one of your amateur members. My opponent thought they could castle to safety, but this was exactly what I wanted them to do...

Exploit this blunder! :D

It was white who blundered: 1.Q×a7?? Qd1#

I found the game on your games list:

You were lucky that after white's 17.Qxa7?? black played 17...Rde8?? instead of 17...Qd1#!

Well, nobody wins a chess game if the opponent plays perfect chess.
