1. Qxf6 Kxf6

Wow! Look at that!!
Qxf6+ Kxf6 Rxe6+ Qxe6 Rxe6+ Kxe6 Bf5+
..and white emerges a bishop ahead, and is also soon to pick up a pawn.
Maybe black should go for:
Qxf6+ Kxf6 Rxe6+ Kf7 Rxc6 Rxc6
White is still a bishop up but black is left with a rook to defend and has two more pawns than white.
After all exchanges, the Bishop pins the rook
1. Qxf6+ Kxf6
2. Rxe6+ Qxe6
3. Rxe6+ Kxe6
4. Bf5+ and pockets the Black Rook
1-0
It seems to me that Qxe6 can start an avalanche of exchanges and then Bf5+ traps the black rook and so white ends up with an extra bishop in the exchange? Furthermore, white pawns form a fortress and white can keep capturing black pawns? This is what I can see…
1.Qxf6+! Kxf6 2.Rxe6+ Qxe6 3.Rxe6+ Kxe6 4.Bf5+ and wins the Rook
Qxf6?
Q x r check, k x q, r x b check, q x r, r x q check, k x r, b f5 check
1. Qxf6+ Kxf6 2. Rxe6+ Qxe6 3. Rxe6+ Kxe6 4. Bf5+ 1-0
1. Qxf6! Kxf6
2. Rxe6+ Qxe6
3. Rxe6+ Kxe6
4. Bf5+ and white wins a piece.
1. Qxf6+ Kxf6
2. Rxe6+
If black king moves out of check, white takes queen and comes out a bishop ahead.
Otherwise,
2. …Qxe6
3. Rxe6+
If black king moves out of check, white is a bishop ahead.
Otherwise,
3. …Kxe6
4. Bf5+
And white comes out a bishop ahead.
Did I miss anything?
I guess Bg6+ wins an exchange at least. Don’t have lot of time to analyze though.
QxR+ KxQ
RxB+ QxR
RxQ+ KxR
Bf5+ wins the c8 rook
Since it is called as a quickie tactic there must be some decisive blow needed…
1.Qxf6+ KxR (What else) 2.RxB+ QxR
3.RxR+ KxR 4.Bf5+ K any 5.BxR …I think this wins for white.

I think Lorfa has a good point here.
1. Qxf6+ Kxf6
2. Rxe6+ Kf7!
3. Rxc6 Rxc6
Black has 2 pawns for the bishop and can still fight for a draw, whereas the “main line” looses directly.
