Very well played on your end too!

I literally spent at least four hours going through variations before playing h4 to make sure you didn't have any counterplay because I realized my king was pretty exposed but somehow didn't consider the possibility where you just ignored h5 and so in every variation I looked at the g1 square was clear by the time you started getting in checks. Definitely should have thought for more than a few minutes before responding to that. I think Rxg6 would have just won.

Yeah I think if Rxg6 I would have resigned fairly shortly

I thought I might still have had some type of perpetual but analyzing it now it looks like not
