I just had this in one of my games and thought it would make a good puzzle, its simple but fun. Whites move and checkmate in 3

This puzzle is flawed. Mate in four, as Ben said.

 Ummm... Thank you?

 

Anyways, I did not call the puzzle stupid. I called the puzzle flawed.

 

The puzzle is flawed because you claim white to be able to mate in three, which he cannot achieve against best defense.

 

If you were simply claiming that this was the end of one of your games, and in your game you mated in three moves, then there was no reason to post the sequence in puzzle format.
