White to move &
draw

It seems as if it's all over but the shouting for White, as he seems forced to exchange queens to avoid imminent checkmate.  White has no intention of giving up that easy!

1.Qg8+








White forces Black's reply, since the king has no other moves to make.  Speaking of not having any other moves to make, the same can be said for White...

1...Kxg8








It is White's turn to move, and he's not in check, but he has nowhere to move to.  Stalemate!
