Wow niiice. I would have thought move #22(cxd5) was a mistake; as it led to the queen loss, but I guess they pulled it out in the end eh?

Agreed with the previous poster.  Move 22 creates a position that, on first glance, looks resignable, but beneath it holds treacherous tactics.  I think your opponent moved the wrong rook on 26 and turned a superior, but difficult, game into a clearly difficult one. (I prefer RF5 which I think gives a signficant advantage, but admittedly, that passed pawn remains a monster).  Good job salvaging.

In addition, I have to add: you missed a quicker win on move 32:  D7 and, if ...RD8 33: Re8 RxR 34: PxR=Q#. (The only other alternative is 33: ...QxP+, but against that you have KA2, after which, once again, your opponent will be unable to hold off your attack.  Still, all in all, nicely played.
