  Honza Cervenka: 19.Bxb7+ was a mistake, instead of that 19.g3 would have been more than sufficient defense. The problem of that intermezzo trade of Bishops is that after that 20.g3 is not good for 20...Qf6 with double attack against Ra1 and Pf3. With Bishop on c6 the Pawn on f3 was protected, and so 19.g3 Qf6 20.Rb1 gives nothing to black. 20.Be3!? Bxe3 21.g3 Qf6 22.Kg2 was worth of try, though 21...Qc4 (instead of 21...Qf6) gives black clear advantage. After 20.Ne4 Rhf8 the Knight on e4 is hanging, and 21.Bf4 is insufficient for 21...Nxf4 22.Qxb4 Ka8 23.Qe1 Qh5 24.Nxf4 Rxf4 25.Qe2 Rd4 26.Nd2 Rxd2 27.Qxd2 Rxf3+ etc.
