Mayet Attack, Poisoned Pawn Variation

With 5...Qxg2, Black takes the g2 pawn and keeps a material edge, but the queen now sits deep in White's camp while the black king remains uncastled. The most common reply, 6. Rf1, saves the rook but has scored poorly for White. The sharper 6. Qh5+ g6 7. Bf7+ scores much better. In that line White is willing to give up further material for an attack on the exposed king, and the engine gives White a slight edge.
