Here Black resigned, the threat of Rxd6 having no good defence. With all of Black’s pieces undeveloped, resistance is futile. However, for my readers it should be pointed out that if Black plays 20…d5!? then White has the spectacular 21.Rxd5!! maintaining all of the threats!
If now 21…PxR (the threat is 22.Rd6) 22.Nxd5 with mate in the next few moves
