Don't go pawn grabbing.

Easy! and by the way Qxa7+ would also result in the checkmate.

but erikido point out no pawn grabbing so is was abit of a challenge (to find the other move), just my 2c thought. Smile

Another mate in 2 isn't "pawn grabbing."  Just an equal (and alternate) solution.


 I had put this in before.  BUt, had to redo it.  I had put that BLACK had gone pawn grabbing the move before-that was why that caption.  Sleep really isn't overated for those of you that actually get it.
