Hunting for Mistakes * FM RAT, Dan-Ovidiu vs. me

"1b3k2/pp3p2/2p1pq2/2Pr2r1/1P1P4/4Q1PR/PB2R1K1/8 b - - 0 31"

After White's last 31.Rh4-h3??
it is Black to move

The game was played in the national team championship, on Dec-21, 2008.
I was the second player and missed the move that would have made White resign on the spot, due to excessive lack of sleep.
(Just a remark: I wouldn't like to boast myself here, but even if White had not blundered, Black had a superior position by move 30, almost winning.)

Try and guess the move-sequence that would have won the game for Black on the spot. (please write your solution as a comment to this entry)

Major improvements:
* 12.exf5 (instead of g4)
12..Nxf5 13.g4 +/- (or +-)
* 26.exd5 (instead of cxd5) and the Queen heads for f5. +-
(It still remained +- but that would have been even stronger.)

The game was of course +- when I (as White) offered a draw on move 31.
(I may be a coward, but I don't care. I had had bitter memories from the past, and my opponent was rated 260 points higher than me. I would have been glad with this result before the game.)
