There might have been an attack there. Active pieces and opponents exposed?

White gets a Bishop, a Knight and a Rook for the Queen.

3 + 3 + 5 > 9

Blueemu is correct. Black gains 3 pieces for a Queen, which should be an easy win. Not sure if this is the Van Kruijts Opening or the Sargasso (or is Saragossa), but White gave Black way too much in the opening. Far too much with the Queen moves.
