Apoline48: 30 d7+ is better with mate next move

|
Apoline48: Why not 21... e3 pinning the Q and attacking white's B ?

Apoline48: After black's 9th move, the only square for white's queen is 10 e4 and white is lost.

|
Apoline48: It seems to me that on 8 Nxf7 is better
before taking on d4!

|
Apoline48: I must be missing something but for me
28 Qf7+ is mat in 2 !

Apoline48: Since there is no forced mate and the N is going to be taken after 20 RxR , it seems to me that white could first get an extra pawn by 20 Nxf7 unless I miss something !?

Apoline48: It's funny; this problem ends up where it started with black's Ba2 leading to an attack on the Q after a discoved check . That was black's threat after it 16th move too!

|
Apoline48: Just want to point out that even if black position is a lost one, it's not yet a forced mate with 7...Be6
instead of comiting suicide with BxQ .
Even a bad player can ask himself why his oponent leaves his Queen en prise ! The real question is how to go on playing after this ...
