I just was playing some Internet blitz chess games (one of my preferred methods to relax a little bit). In one of the games I had sacrificed two pawns already to get quite some activity of my pieces as compensation, and finally reached the position you can see below. As it was a blitz game I had not much time to calculate very thoroughly ... but thoroughly enough to find the decisive attack. :-) Do you also see how black could win?

Gerade eben spielte ich ein paar Internet-Blitzschachpartien (eine meiner bevorzugten Methoden, mich zu entspannen). In einer der Partien hatte ich bereits zwei Bauern geopfert, um dafür aktives Figurenspiel als Kompensation zu erhalten, und schließlich kam die Stellung aufs Brett, die ihr unten seht. Da es sich um eine Blitzpartie handelte, blieb mir nicht viel Zeit zum exakten Berechnen der Varianten ... aber immer noch genug, um den entscheidenden Gewinnzug zu entdecken. :-) Seht ihr auch, wie Schwarz gewinnen konnte?
Let's try it this way then:
Rh8 -h7, h2 -h4
Qc7 x g3, h4 x g5
Qg3 - h2 + mate

h2-h4 would be a terrible move, and is not forced ...

Then what would he move then? I can't guess what the other guy is gonna move.
I don't really se any forced move here.

Rh8 -h7, Kg1 -h1
Rd8 - h8, h2 -h4
g2 x g4, Ng2 x g4
Rh7 x Nh4, g3 x Rh4
Rh8 x h4+, Kh1 - g1 (or g2)
Qc7 - h2+ mate

To make it short: there is a much faster win than 1. ... Rh7.

Rh8 x h2, Kg1 x Rh2
Rd8 - h8+, Kh2 - g1
Qc7 x g3, pretty much over

Rook captures h2 as a sacrifice? King captures Rook then black moves Rd8+?

Yes! My apologies I was looking at the Rook on d8 rather than where I wanted to move him

OK, then your variation is:

Yes actually then the black Queen captures g3 and the pawn is pinned by black's Bishop

Indeed!
However @pompe72 was faster this time - check above. :)

The critical continuation is:

My white player doesn't want the rook.
I would do it like this:
1
.... - Rxh2
2
Nh4 -- Rxh4
3
gxh4 - Bh3
4
Rg4+!- Nxg4
5
Qxg4!- Bxg4
6
Ne4 -- Rh8
8
Kg2 -- Qh2
with f3 covered by the white bishop on g4
Black is convinced white doesn't just need to lose, the position merits punishment while white has a sense of humor about it.

If you want to win as black you must have a good answer against every white defense.
By the way, if white plays 2. Nh4 black can win much faster than in your variation ... :)

I like H8 to H3. Seems like a hard mess to deal with.

Black does have a better position after 1. ... Rh3, but a much faster win is possible ... :)

It's a winning position. That King is trapped so hard. I'm trying to think fast like a speed game. Not some sacrifice masterpiece haha.
