Joined 16 Jan '05 Moves 12804 White clearly has a draw by repetitive check, despite being down material. But does he have something else? White to play and win.

"(White to play and mate in 2 moves) If you cannot solve it without moving the pieces, then chess is probably not your game 🙂"

Uh oh. I think I can get it in 3... That one is easy enough - I can't currently get the initial one.

I do. I suck at these. The obvious move is 1. Rb6+ however a quick check shows this leads to a mate in 3.
Quicker is 1. Rb7 Bxb7 (only move) 2. Bb5#
It's an easy problem because there is only one move to find. Black's move is forced.
