This position is deja vu. Did we just have one similar to it?
1. Bh6 Qf6 (1. … gxh6 2. Rxh6 f6 3. Rg6+ Kh8 4. Rh7+ Kxh7 5. Qf4 with no useful prevention to Qh6#)
2. Qxf6 gxf6
3. Bxf8
1. Qxg7(??) Kxg7
2. Bd4+ Qf6!
3. BxQ KxQ
white is not ‘winning huge’

If 1… Qxc7, then
2. Qh4 f6 (what else?)
3. g6 and 4. Qh7#
If 1… Bxf5, then
2. Qxg7 and so on
Bh6 – white has black by the gonads
