1st move is to distract queen. in 2nd move black can't take queen due to mate (Bxf6#). 3rd move is awesome sacrifise, with the idea of sacrifising in 4th move. Threatens mate (fxg7#) and if black queen moves, white just plays f7+. Black has to defend it with Qg7 again, and white queens and mates (g8=Q#)

I thought the first move was Qxf6. I'm pretty sure this works.

Qxf6?? is a horrible move. after gxf6, Bxf6+?? is very bad move, because queen protects f6-square.

Re8! distracts it.

White (human-GM+engine) tried his best to win [at average 5-days/move!] but black (human-GM+engine) managed to draw easily.
