The Stockfish options win a rook and bishop for the cost of a pawn.

spoilerRg8 does the same but also wins the queen for that rook.

Legit games are not that common here but because i believe stockfish is wrong i feel like it still belongs.

Oh so instead of white pawn takes black rook, you'd go white rook to g8.

This forces black king to f7. White rook takes black rook, putting black in check.

Black king can escape (which then has white rook takes black queen) or black queen takes white rook (with pawn taking queen and promoting).

Either way blood bath ensues, probably leaving white up some pieces for the exchange. Mkay, I think I see.
