This new toy won’t stop you releasing 2.6/2.7 compatible GIMP# though, eh?

Bf6 is indeed correct. The immediate threat is Qxf8+. If black takes the bishop he will be mated in a few moves since he blocks the King’s escape via f6. The only alternative he has left is to sacrifice his queen with Qc5. White doesn’t take the queen, but plays Qg3, which leads to mate in a couple of moves.

Of course this is all very easy for a PC to find in a few seconds.

Kudos to Martin

Bxg7 is what I played in the blitz game. It leads to decisive advantage, but no quick mate because black can play f7 and escape.
