On the first game, why not 31. Rg2 Be3+ 32. Kh1 Qe1 33. Nce2 Bxd4 34. Nxd4 Qxf1+ Rg1 ? Isn't that at least a reasonable alternative? Apologies for any mistakes in my line.

In the IM Almeida Saenz game it seems that white is up the exchange for a pawn and will have a nice position after 28. fxe5 dxe5 29. Rxd8+ Qxd8 30. Qf7 when white should definitely have the advantage in an endgame. Also, it is possible black may have been under serious time pressure, although we cannot confirm that.
