Daily chess puzzle: Check Mate #105

Another puzzle from Dragoslav Andric’s 1981 book “Matni Udar”.

White to play and mate Black

Steinbrecher v Banzinger, Monaco 1929

Solution

Straightforward today, since examining all biffs means you have to look at the only capture: 1 Qh6+! gh[] 2 g7+ Kh7 and the only thing to see, but which is pretty, is the next move, 3 gf(N) mate.
