    Here's an aesthetically-pleasing 5-min blitz victory, demonstrating how to take advantage of weaknesses for a win.

    In the variation you gave, after  24. Qh7+, black's reply is 24... Nxh7. Game over.

    chubby, 19.re7 achieve nothing. 19. Rf1 and black is paralysed. white can continue with Rf2 and Raf1 and take the knight at leisure.

    19. Re7 is more forcing, as it immediately wins a minor. I added the variation to the original diagram.
