So, I decide to protect my Rook by shooing away his DSB.

 
15... Ng4
At first, I had no idea why he played this. However, I quickly figured out that his goal is to set up a mating sequence with his remaining Knight and Queen.

Therefore, I have to prevent this, so I decide to bring out my Queen out, at last. Note: this is not too early as all the other pieces have been developed. In addition, he knows my weakspot, so I have to do whatever I can, to protect my King and Queen. BTW, that is the only thing stopping me from taking his DSB. Because if 16.Rxb2??, 16...Nf2+, winning my Queen, with his Knight fork.

Therefore, he retreats. If he cannot win more valuable material or mate (therefore, to succeed with a deflective sac), why would he be willing to give away a piece?

?? So, I go for brokes (anything), by reattacking his DSB. As it turns out, however, this move will end the game quickly, as we will see. Either way, however, I do not mind because I already know that the game is lost.

 
17... Bxg3
At first, At first, I viewed this as a mistake, as this gives away a piece, for a pawn. As it turns out, however, this move seals my fate. Why? After I retake, he places me in check. Then, a mate in one is inevitable. After 18...Qh5+, this will happen, 19.Kg1 (forced), 19...Qh2#. As a result, I resign, after 18...Qh5+.
