Hope u enjoy my puzzle

There's no need to play 1. g5, when Black can avoid mate with 1... Qxg5+ 2. Qxg5 gxf5

Just play 1. Qxh7+ Kxh7 2. hxg6+ Kxg6 3. Rh6#

@1random You're right. My line doesn't win. Embarassed

So 1. g5 is best, but it doesn't force mate against the best defence.

I meant Kg5 in response to caveatcanis.

Oh ok

The puzzle is correct ;)

The king is forced to move to g5(Kxg5..the 4th move,plz see it properly)

The puzzle is correct ;)

The first move is correct, but the solution doesn't show Black's best defence, which is 1...Qxg5+.

The solution is not forced.  Qxg5 stops the mate (i think), but loses a rook.

Actually, it's only the exchange, since Black captures the knight on f5 and ends up with R+B vs 2R. That's still enough for White to win.

Just play 1. Qxh7+ Kxh7 2. hxg6+ Kxg6 3. Rh6#

3. Rh6+ Kg5 and queen for rook

As 1random pointed out a week ago. I acknowledged my mistake shortly afterward (comments #4 and #7).
