How should white finish the deal? What's the best move(s) for white?
Rc7
Bxg?
1. Rc7 is crushing
e.g.
1. Rc7 R8f7 2. Rxf7 Rxf7 3. Bxe5+
all the other lines I've looked at are just as bad for Black.
Who else has a Queen sacriface?
1 Rc8 is also good. Then there's 1 Bxe5+ Rxe5 2 Qd4 followed by 3 f4 (what isn't gonna work here?...White is an absurd amount of material up and Black has a hobbled king).
In the actual game, I played Rc7. Here's the full game:
