  al wazir: What happens after 22...Qxc7 ? After 23. Qxc5 Qxc5+ 24. bxc5 white is a ♙ up, but not clearly winning.
Aug-10-24  Allderdice83: I had as far as 22. dxc7 but didn't consider what I'd do on 22 ... Qd2. Obviously, 23. Rfd1?? loses to 23 ... Qe3+ and 24 ... Nxe5. 23. Qe8+?? Rg8 loses also. 23. Qf6 isn't even best; 23. Qxc5 is.

22 ... Qd2 at least offers White a chance to blunder. 22 ... Qxc7 is technically better but loses simply after 23. Qxc7 Rxc7 24. Rxc5. White's up a protected passed pawn and has much more active pieces (+2.5). Not only that, Black can't develop the bishop and rook without losing the b pawn, eg., 24 ... Be6 25. Nxb7 Bxa2? 26. Rd8+ Rxd8 27. Nxd8 Nd7 28. c6 Nb6 29. Bxa6.

Black had a couple other chances to improve, most notably with 16 ... Ng6 (-0.2) instead of 16 ... Rg8.

I agree with this way of meeting 22...Qxc7, but the analysis given after 24. Rxc5 doesn't seem to fit (for example, by not starting with 24...Rxc5, which seems forced).
