Default Move 21

I see only one possible move this time: 21.Rxd8. Is that right, or is there any alternative? (21.Bxb7 Nxc2 22.Rxd8 Raxd8 leaves us a rook down.)

Yeah, that is the only move I see too.

Unless someone sees something earthshattering, that is my vote.

Anything else looks like a blunder to me.

Agreed Rxd8:

21. Rxd8 Raxd8
22. Qc1 Nxf1
23. Bxb7 Nd2
24. Nd4 exd4
25. Qxd2

I next want to look at 21. Rxd8 Nxc2
