Hi Richard and all,
Okay, I would:
1. ... Qxf3+
This move takes out the white knight which is guarding the g1 square, as well
as puts the white king in check trapping the king in the h1 corner square.
White only has one of two moves, both with the same results, checkmate for
white.
First choice, white can take blacks queen with his rook on f1.
2. Rxf3 Rg1#
Second choice, white can block the check with his queen from c2.
2. Qg2 Qxg2#
Black wins either way.
Chris
