I'll spare you from hundreds of analyses by following generations of chess
players. After endless debate they have agreed that 19.Rad1 was better than the
alternative 19.Be4. Now the best reply was 19...Rg4!, which would pose some
difficult problems for White, but in the emerging wild complications White
would, in my opinion, retain the upper hand.
