Black resigned in this position, and there's no doubt he's dead. He just made a couple semi-passive moves in the opening and suffered greatly. Although Baker probably wouldn't have resigned if he were Black here. If you look in my other annotated games, I have a game where Baker lost his queen early but still won. I hope you liked Baker's quick crushing attack
