Mate in Two Peek-a-boo

Submitted by RoyalFlush1991 on Thu, 05/28/2009 at 4:16pm.

This problem appeared in my local paper and after two hours of looking at it, I still had not found the solution. This may say more about my tactical ability than the problem itself, but nonetheless, I want to challenge you all to find the solution. To avoid the standard "easy" messages, the solution will not be posted till a week from today. Good luck!

*Warning this is not a practicality problem, anyone can win in this position, the challenge is finding the Mate in Two*

It is really very easy, took it 5 second for me to spot the solution and 10 second to calculate is it right in any line. Read the Kotov's book about correct moves calculation order and recognition of patterns, then you will see such things even faster.
