Well, technically you still have to deal with Rxd4+

Just thought it was funny to catch the king in the middle ofthe board. Fischer - Keres is the best examples I've ever seen of mating the king in the middle of the board.

This was an OTB game where I mated a King in centre of the board.
Black stepped into the mating net trying to avoid a perpetual.
Who say's Black never wins short Sicilians.

I don't know. That sounds more like the folly of blitz. I don't want to get bad habits when I play real chess OTB.
