What's wrong with this puzzle.

Gameknot's solution:

(black to move)1. b3 Bg4
2. Qxg4 Qxg4

The proper white counter to this leads to mate in two:

1. b3 Bg4
2. Qg6+ Kh8
3. Qh7#
CHECKMATE

Again, how can one train when the opponent's move are not to their own best advantage?
Gameknot please put a little more thought into these.

Sorry senior, but 2. Qg6+ loses the queen to the pawn on f7.

So right you are

Hahahaha, sometimes I can't believe I don't see what is right in front of me. Thanks for the correction on this one BoW, perhaps I should just shut up about these things. But then again I am right about a few of them

That's ok, senior. Chess blindness affects a lot of us.
