A Muzio Trio

A while back I had started a thread in the forums about brilliancies.  Of course, under the massive volume of everything that comprises chess.com, the beautiful games have been buried and forgotten.  I wanted to resurrect some of them at least temporarily.  Here are three Muzio Gambits that I like:

 

A Classic from Richard Reti-

 

David Janowski offering odds-

 

A blazing Fire on the Board from Alexey Shirov-

    Hi One_Bullet

    In the Reti game, if Black took the rook with 19...Qxe8, then 20.Nf6 threatens mate on h7 and attacks the queen on e8. As Black has no satisfactory way to deal with both of these threats, he resigned.

    Sorry for asking, but the Reti vs Freyman, why black resigned? What is the continuation after black Queen takes the rook?
