| olpa: Note that after 16.Nxe6 fxe6 17.Bd6 Qb6 18.Qg5 Qd8 white does not play Qxg7, but 19. Qg6+ hxg6 20.Bxg6 mate. And yes, 18...Nf6 holds the position. |

| olpa: I've looked in two books, and both said that "24.exd5 is impossible due to 24...e4", but I could not understand what black gets with it. Finally, I run an engine to find that the threat is Qxh2#. |
