Qe2
Yup!
1… Qe2!
2 Rf1 Nxf1
3 Qd4 Ne3!
4 Qxg7+ Kxg7
5 Rxa7 Rb1+
6 Bf1 Qxf1#
White’s queen and rook are too far out of position to thwart the attack.
Ah, come on. 4. Qxg7+, … ?
Do not post computer lines so obvious, please.
What I best like about this easy one is the knight on e3. Well met, Susan.

How it got there is mildly interesting. Poor Bacrot! Look at his lifetime record vs. Anand. In this game he looks for all the world like a mouse facing off against a boa constrictor.

My apologies for offending your sensibilities, but in truth I came up with the moves myself and simply wanted to play it out to mate. Of course white would resign after Ne3! No need to be quite so snobbish.
