19. Nxd6
Trading material towards a K vs K,B,P endgame

 
19... cxd6 20. f4
f4??

 
20... g6
g6! White's queen has no flight squares! White's previous move f4 blocks f3, White's last safe square. 21. Ng4! offers some interesting counterplay threatening Nxh6 winning black's queen. A move neither my opponent or I had contemplated and probably would have saved white's game. Black's active King probably won't be enough to stave off white's bishop and kingside pawns.
