27. Qxf6 d4
Threatening Qg2#.

 
28. Rd2 Rge8 29. Bg6
There really was no way for black to avoid losing a rook.

 
29... h4
Trying for counterplay on the kingside.

 
30. Bxe8 hxg3
Sacrificing his rook for a dangerous attack.

 
31. Qxe7
I thought I could withstand it.

 
31... gxh2+ 32. Rxh2 Qg3+
I threaten mate, so he has to keep checking my king.

 
33. Kf1 Ba6+ 34. Ree2 Qf3+ 35. Ke1 g3
Allows mate, but my king would have escaped eventually anyways.

 
36. Qd7+ Kb8 37. Qd6+ Ka8 38. Bc6+
Black resigns, because of 38...Qxc6 39. Qxc6 Kb8 40. Rh8 Bc8 41. Rxc8#. Undoubtedly my opponent and I made many mistakes, but it was a fun game.
