Yep there was no mate for black there.. white must play kh1 then blacks only hope for mate is on the h2 square with the other rook, so lets say black plays Rg5 with the intention of playing Rh5 the next move to threaten Rxh2#. white would just have to play Rg1 to force a trade of rooks and thus end blacks chances.
Originally posted by Nighthawk62Ok, I sent Crockett1947 a PM leading him to this thread. I hope he has a sense of humour, or maybe he can show us what he saw that nobody else did.

Originally posted by TestriderYou're right! I figured there should be a way to mate him but somehow I did not come up with it. Maybe it was because I thought the Rd2Xg2 was a mating move originally

(instead of Rd2xg2 you should have played Rgxg2 Kh1 Rxh2+ Kg1 Rdg2🙄
