if the Queen move to 25.Qd5? the Rook will simply take the pawn losing momentum of the attack, and if the White bishop move to d1 then the Black King will move to f7 don't you believe
Not
25.Qd5 ?, but as i wrote
23.Qd5! would be winning without
any need for a spectacular queen sacrifice...

23.Qd5 wins as well as 23.Qxd6 does regards
ok thx for your post,
for 23.Qxd6 with a
pure NNUE engine, and not long time, i first
didn't see a win, and a later Black blunder (29...a5) was obvious.
Now i checked with a
hybrid/Nnue/classic engine(setting),
and the engine sees it (including 28.a4!) after you make the move(s)
and do some back-scrolling (so even this hybrid engine doesn't see it
by itself, obviously pruning too much except Blackdiamond apparently).
NB Qxd6! only wins in another way than played in the game, namely,
with 28.a4! (not with 28.Bxc4 ? as in the game because then
-before the Black blunder, Black could have drawn with 29...cxb3!).
So, i could now see all that with a not- so fast machine (and
hybrid engine); it appears that engine is also is important
besides hardware speed...
NB i certainly was
not trolling... (hadn't seen two other posts yet,
looks like there was some (simultaneous) cross-postings); also the poster
was not trolling imho, personally i didn't know this position yet
(although apparently it has been posted earlier quite some times),
and it's interesting to check with the latest engines isn't it.
