After the pawn fork, your defense is still okay. Bc8 is not a good move because it is passive and it breaks up your rooks. And, quite honestly, the A pawn just isn't worth that kind of trouble at this point in the game. Just play Bb5.

So did your opponent resign?

55.Bh7 Rhxh7# or Rgxh7# nice game!

on the 23rd move you should've played c4 instead of Ra8! c4 forks bishop and queen! you could've won a piece but you still won!
