A quick search in my database revealed that 12...0-0? is already regarded as a
decisive mistake.
18...Qa5? is of course pointless. Black is completely lost after this move.
21.Rc3 wins easily and 21.Rh3 Tfc8 22.Rc1 wins easily as well.
After 21.Be3? Qxe5 22.Nd7 Qe4 23.Nxf8 Rxf8 the white attack is over and black
has a pawn for the exchange.
So 21.Be3? (or even ??) is a bad move.
I think this is not a great game at all.
