  Open Defence: 23.f4 is probably the first slight inaccuracy by White

probably should have gone for 23.Nxd6 Rxd6 24.Rxd6 Qxd6 25. e5

and now after 25...Qd7 26.Bxe6 Qxe6 27.exf6 Qxf6 this looks drawish

If White wanted to keep the tension, then maybe 23.Bf4

after 23.f4 d5 best was probably 24.exd5 instead of f5

but 29.Qh5 was the probably the decisive error when Ne5 should have been played instead
