That looks like a fixed line, Mark (19. Ne5 Bxe5 20. Bxe5 Ng6)

After 19.Ne5 Bxe5 20.Bxe5 Ng6 the PV is unfortunately not very long:

 00:34:35  17.00  0.27  21.c4 Nxe5

I think GM Nickel could draw this! Go we humans! Beat them Turks! Well draw
then..
But I imagine Hydra will be thinking a bit deeper about its moves..?
