29. Rac1 Rda8
Cashing another pawn, and ending white's possible resistance, I fear. If Ke3 (with the idea d3), white falls to Rd8. Rf-d1 (either) is probably the best try, thinking on d5 (black cannot block it with Bd4 due to c3).

 
30. Rcd1
The normal sequence after Rf-d8: Bb2, Rb1, Rxa2, Rd5 or Rd2...

 
30... Rxa2 31. Rd3
Better, IMO, Rd5, but there's not a great difference.

 
31... Rxc2
Rf-d1 doesn't offer white anything after Bd4 - now solid as a rock. My opponent resigns. But this was a very interesting game. Even after the blunder, there was something to be said. Thank you ab15 for playing me, and hope to see you again.
