Qh5 Against the Grob, Chair First

I sat down again and played until the position was real. This is that second sitting.

Qh5 against the Grob. Chair first.

rnbqkbnr/pppppp1p/8/6pQ/4P3/8/PPPP1PPP/RNB1KBNR b KQkq – 1 2

Black played g5. White checked on h5. Is that a real attack, or a cheap scare?

Then Black’s bishop hits c3 with check. The queenside opens. Sit here.

r1b1k1nr/pp1p1p1p/2n1p3/q1p3BQ/2B1P3/N1bP4/PP3PPP/R3K1NR w KQkq – 0 8

Can White keep the corner rook? Or did Qh5 already tip the chair the wrong way?

I wish you the best of luck!!
