  wwall: If 20...Nxc4?, then 21.Qc3.

Instead of 22...f6, perhaps 22...Re6 23.Qb4 Nc6 24.Qb3 Rxe3 25.Rxe3 Qf6. Not 22...Nxc4?? 23.Qb4.

Instead of 23...Qb6, perhaps 23...Qd7 24.Qe2 Rf8 25.d4 Ng6 26.d5.

Instead of 24...Rf8, perhaps 24...c5 25.d5 Rf8 26.f4 Nf7 27.Re7

Instead of 25...Nc6, perhaps 25...Ng6 26.d5 Qc5 27.b4 Qd6

27...Qa6 loses, but there may be more resistance in 27...Qb5 28.Rb4 Qd3 29.d6 c6 30.Bxc6 Qxc3 31.Rxb7+ Ka8 32.Rxg7+ Nxc6 33.bxc3.
