Cheers, mate.

Last couple of days I have been working the ladder up in 5 minute blitz against chessmaster personalities. I am currently playing against around 1200 rated opponents so still I have a long way to go. It seems to be in many cases that I am not very able to use available resources for a mate but I usually just promote enough queens to deliver. Here I stopped to think for a change and found the fastest mate. Which is mate in two.

I had 1:32 on my clock and it took me seven seconds to confirm it.

White to move.
