excellent because Stockfish thought black was losing and this was just another way to lose. eventually it thought the king would be able to hide in squares protected by the queen. however, after Rf8+ the king can't go anywhere, the rook will still be able to check... all this is just assumptions though...
The king can't capture back on f8? I don't get it..
if the king captures on f8 then its stalemate
