ResponderExcluirYou are right about the solution to the puzzle, Ramón, but wrong about White having a mate in 2 were it his turn to move:
ResponderExcluir1 Rxc6+ b6 2 Qb5+ Kb7
No mate in 2.
Jake, in this situation Qxb6 guarantees the mate in two (not Qb5, as i have written).
ResponderExcluirI was wrong. No mate in Qb6 either. The pawn takes down the queen.
