For 3:00, I remembered preparing for this line and I would've gone after Bc4 Nb6 instead of Nxc3, I wonder would that be inferior, or is that a possible line to play. I think I also get too focused on trying to win the pawn so I tried to go doubling the rooks (I guess something to learn from here).
For 17...Be6, I remember realising not being able to win the pawn, and I was kind of scared of all of the potential discovered checks with the pawn, so after Ne5 Nxe5 dxe5 there's no e6 discovered check there (Although I did miss Qa5 trading the queen).
I was also trying to simplify things because I feel like things are getting out of control - but I clearly chose a worse way to trade off the queens.
After trading the queens, I feel like I played an okay game there (after white missing on taking the pawn), hearing a GM saying that the winning evaluation on the 30th move requires enormous calculation at least make me feel a bit better not finding the win lol
Anyways, thanks for the deep analysis, I guess it's time binge-watch this video :D
