I'll play it out with you.

Bxg6 hxg6 Rxe6 fxe6

I am guessing your only real move here is Qxg6+, in which case I'd respond with
Kf8.

[D]r1r2k2/4b3/1qp1p1Q1/1p1n4/3P4/P5N1/1B3PPP/R5K1 w - - 0 4

After playing through these moves (with 3 minutes per move) using DF8, I show
0.09.  It'd be interesting to see the whole game, and see where/when Ruffian
(maybe) messed this up.
