So, started playing again after a few years so tear this game to shreds. I have to state that my action rating was about 15-1600 but when I started I was young and stupid so my rating dipped to about 200, been building it back up from there.
It looks like 17... Rb7 would've won a piece. And I think 20... Nbc5 would've been strong. It's complicated, but...that's probably why you should've played 19 Kf1 (on e3 the B's a little wobbly--plus that allowed his Q to come out). He also could win 2 pieces for a R with 20... Rxe3+ 21 Qxe3 Qxa6--although having lost so many pawns (and with his position disorganized) that's probably not much of a bargain. Oh yeah, and 29... Ke6 still would've lost the Q: 30 Nc7+ and if 30... Kd6 31 Rd1+. Fun game to analyze!
