  Honza Cervenka: 22.Rxc1? is hard to explain. I don't think that after 22...Qxc1+ 23.Re1 Rf8! Hort could miss that the Queen cannot be taken for weak back rank mate, not to mention that 23...Qc7 is playable as well. There was nothing wrong with 22.Rde1.

Anyway, it was simpler for white to play 21.Bxf7+ Qxf7 22.Qxf7+ Kxf7 23.Rxd3 Rxd3 24.Ne5+ and 25.Nxd3.

Apr-24-25  xjian77: From "Der beste Zug" by Hort & Jansa (1982).
22.Rxc1? (22.Rde1 =) Qxc1+ 23.Re1 Rf8!! 24.h3 Qc3! 25.Re3 (25.Rd1 Qf6) Qa1+ 26.Kh2 Qf6 ∓
