The question, how do you know who's supposed to  move first? I played twice 
using white first, in to both a 3 fold draw and a  long drawn out white win.

Warm regards,

The  winning move for Black is pawn to e4 check. Since the White King has 
no  escape squares, White only has two options, capturing with either the 
King  or Queen. If the King captures, 2. Kxe4, the Black Knight gets a Royal 
Fork  by moving to c3. Or, if the Queen captures instead, 2. Qxe4, the Black  
Knight gets a different Royal Fork by moving to c5. 
Condensed  solution:  
1.  ... e4+ 
2.  Kxe4 Nc3+ wins exchange, Queen for a Knight or  
2.  Qxe4 Nc5+ wins Queen for a Knight.
