RE: I failed?
As white I'd rather do 3. Qh3 than Qh5

That is no good because white will play Qh3 instead of Qh5 where it is protected by the pawn which means black's sacrificed rook was wasted.

manu, I'm not sure what you are referring to, I was commenting on move 3 of sblack's variation and there is no bishop on h4 nor is there a threat of one
