White to move and win. It's amazing
sometimes how the most obvious move remains hidden to us, especially
if we are overly-focused on our plan. One must always be alert for
tactical opportunities.
1.Nf4
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
Also winning was 1.Bxf6 Qd5 2.Nf4 and White will save
the bishop, remaining a piece up.
Meanwhile, back in the main line, the poor queen has
nowhere to go! In an act of desperation, she gets what she can
in exchange for her life - a rook.
1...Qxh1+ 2.Nxh1
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
White has a queen for a rook & a pawn, a winning
advantage.
