  tpstar: 14. Rg5? is an instructive error, losing the exchange because the Rook gets trapped on the Kingside. 14. Re1/Re2 was correct. 23. g4 Be4 24. Nc3 f5 would have been better than 23 ... Bc8. I was going to suggest 33 ... Qe2 but 34. Bf8+! Kh7 35. Qf7+ wins outright and 34 ... Kg8 35. Qxe2 Rxe2 36. Bxh6 helps White. And not 38 ... Qxe5?? 39. Bc3.
