Note that 5... Qxf5+ 6. Kg1 Rd7 or  5... Qb1+ 6. Kf2 Qxf5+ 7. Kg1 Rd7 give the
same position

after 1... Qe3 2. Qxd6 Re8 3. Qd7+ Re7 4. Qc6 Qxe4 5. d6 Qb1+ 6. Kf2 Qxf5+ 7.
Kg1 Rd7 8. Qxb5 Qe6 9. Qc5 Kg6 10. Rc6 e4

Here's a critical position with white 1 pawn up and I found no win :

[D]8/3r2p1/2RPqpkp/2Q5/1Pp1p3/2P4P/6P1/6K1 w - - 0 11
