I agree with Zilch on this one. At least the rooks would have been traded out and the bishop would then defend the g2 pawn. The only thin i don't like is if Rxf6 pawn, Then the d6 Knight or f1 Bishop will fall. Oh well. Great game. Thanks for the POST.

When Black R moved to Re1+ the right move for white R would be to f1

 An amazing game indeed, jrcolonial98!

 I am an admirer of Yasser Seirawan's play also since even 1980! Then he was very young, 18 or 20 years old but he had won Viktor Korchnoi in an amazing game! Seirawan as White playing the English against Korchnoi (!...) and a variation with Ke1-f1 etc!

Here's my question: If instead of 38. Kh2, white does 38. Rf1, doesn't that avoid mate and preserve white's slight position advantage?  Maybe even get that king/bishop fork executed?
