Force yourself into mate!

I was inspired by another "puzzle" here at "More Puzzles", so after some thinking I came up with this position. Playing as white, FORCE black to win! Laughing Please tell me what you think, and correct me if there's anything wrong in my calculation.

Thanks for the alternative ending! Is it possible to add alternative moves into the solution?

For some time now, I've had 199 views on this puzzle. Someone who would like to make it 200? Wink

This line forces black to mate white quicker. 

 

4. Qe8+ Kg7 5. Bd4+ Bxd4#

 

 @ tonydal

4. Bd4+ does not force black to mate as he can play 4... Kg8

Look at the forum topic "Trying to Lose".  I lost to my friend.  He was rather mad because we were both trying to lose.

 I wonder sometimes how a person learns to write without first learning how to read.

 We learn plenty - easily as much as a normal puzzle.  We are forced to use tactics to achieve the desired result, but it's not the same patterns over and again.
