The low point
Move 18
5.7 pawns down after Rd1. 7 moves later, locistro won.
Not everything was clean
The one slip
13...♘d4 cost 5.0 pawns. dxe4 would have held it.
That did nothing about the queen on b4, hanging before the move and hanging after. 14.cxb4 takes it.
The point: 14.♕xf7+ ♔xf7 15.cxb4 ♘d4
