Analysis Diagram: after 3...Qxh2+ 4.Kf1

White's move is forced, as was is last. In fact, the rest of
White's moves are all forced - Black has no options, and that's
why this sequence is relatively easy to calculate. As one of my
early chess teachers always told me - always look at forcing moves,
always! 4.Rf1 f2+ 5.Ke2 Qg4+ 6.Kd3 Qc4 checkmate
