Yace after some learning is not surprised and it believes that Qh5 is a drawing
move
Gorelikov,I - Crafty-18.13
rnb2rk1/pp3pp1/1qpbp2p/6N1/2BPR3/7P/P1PB1PP1/R2Q2K1 w - - 0 1
Analysis by Yace 0.99.56:
14.Qh5 hxg5 15.Bxg5 f6 16.Rxe6 Qb4 17.Bd3 f5 18.Rxd6 Qxd6 19.Bc4+
= (0.00) Depth: 2 00:00:00
I suspect that every engine is going to find Qh5 after enough time but they may
need hours.

18.Rxe6 is also winning
18...b5 19.Re7+ bxc4 20.Rxg7+ Kxg7 21.Bh6+ Kh7 22.Bxf8+ Kg8 23.Bh6 Qxc1+
24.Bxc1 Nd7 25.Qg6+ is a typical computer line
