  Teyss: There is no direct win if White declines the sac, if he does it's a massacre.

After 37...Qxd5+ I thought White would play 38.f3, to which I would answer Bc6? as in the game line. Black still has an advantage after 39.Qd1 but there is a better continuation: 38...Bxh3+!

Regardless if the King takes the Bishop, Black follows with 39...Qxf3 and White can only delay mate by giving up a lot of material.

Not an exciting puzzle if White declines the sac, but an amusing one if he does.
