Analysis of position in Danish Gambit

That was my first thought, but what if black plays 18...Ne5?
I think you're right though berzha, and i should have stuck with my first idea of the windmill.
18. Rxf7 Ne5 19. Bxe5 dxe5 20. Rxd8, and if Kg8 I can do the regular windmill.
I think it's kind of strange that you are posting a danish gambit win over a player who's 300 points lower than you when he blundered at several points giving you an overwhelming attack. As a 1700 player you are a reasonably strong player. A 1400 player is very weak, compartively speaking, and should basically not be able to put up much of a fight, as evidenced here.
A "windmill" is when a piece goes back and forth to the same square, giving check. The check forces the king on to a square where he will then be hit by a "discovered" check. this gives the attacker a "free move" to capture more material or create a mating position. In the game here, after white played Rxg7+, the black king was forced to the corner. white could have continued by capturing material along the 7th rank, and after each capture going back to g7, forcing the black king back into the corner to start all over again. Black had the option of committing suicide by playing Ne4 blocking the bishop check, this would end the windmill. So, this is not a true, pure windmill. If it were, stopping it by comitting chessiac sucide would not be an option.

This is the game analysis forums, not the game showcase forums. I posted it because I was interested in the position in the diagram that I posted in the first post, not because I wanted to show off a win against a weaker opponent. Go troll somewhere else.
I just finished a game against a lower-rated opponent using the danish gambit. It wasn't a perfect game, but a position arose that was quite interesting that I thought I would post.
