11. Qxg4
I am going to take yet another free piece.

 
11... Qh6
My opponent resigns, in a definitely losing position for Black. In my view, 12.Qxg7! is the best. It threatens mate, which is rid of by 12...Qxg7 13.Bxg7 with an easy game. Tell me what you think. Anyways, my opponet thought that he had a potentially winning position, but that thought disintegrated too soon after he let his minor pieces slip away. Worse for him was that Black helped me set up an attack rather than limit my attack or get rid of it. Also, if you have more than one way to win, than you can pick that way. However, it is wise to seek the best way since the opponent can have a tactic to use against you.
