1. Rxg2! Rg1 2. Rh1#

Too lazy to write all the variations, so I just wrote what happened in the game...
I cannot follow the notation here. You should notate the moves as 1.White's move Blacks move.

even if it's first black that makes a move, notate it as 1 ... Black's move.

Now, considering 1.Rxg2 is actuall 1... Rxg2, I cannot see how black can play 2...Rh1 here. Maybe it's just a temporary blindness 🙂

very impressive yes! The kind of combination we all dream to play...a bit like the famous Lasker-Thomas combination

Too right I'm jealous. I've only got a Pentium III with a 1MHz processor.
