This was a rather exciting game (for both sides, I hope!) that shows that having the initiative (and a passed pawn or two) are at least as good as a material advantage. Be sure to check out the "Move List" button for some interesting variations.

19. ... Re4?! Unless I'm missing something, the bishop on e2 was a sitting duck

Very interesting game in my opinion seeing as I suck, despite whatever my rating implies. I liked the commentary very much.

if Rxe2, then Rxd4 if this rook is taken, white forks on f6 and also, if Nh5, then g4 wins the knight

Actually (regarding your comment after your 26th move) it is enough to lose. You're a piece down in this ending; you played well to create enough chances to draw, but it shouldn't have succeeded against best play. In fact, White missed at least one win (62 Kf6).
