Chronology
After some tactical
maneuvering  White has
managed to exchange his h
pawn for the Black a pawn and
has just captured the valiant c
pawn. Materially, the game is
more or less even. Were the
queens exchanged White
would likely have better
chances. But now Black
threatens Queen to h1
checkmate, so White must
move his queen to g2. Black
then plays Queen to d1
threatening Qh5 with check
and winning the White queen.
White has no choice - he must
play his pawn to g4. But Black
has long since foreseen this
and has one more move. He
continues the theme of a
check on h file by moving his
queen to e1. At this point,
White has no saving resources
left and is lost.
