10:12 The reason I didn't sacrifice the exchange was because I thought that rushing in a position where I simply had the better pieces was not the most logical thing to do. I also did not take because I thought that if instead of bxc3 Qxc3 was played, then my opponent gets the queen active, and is up an exchange.
27:07 Kg8 was a mouse slip, I knew how to win that endgame, I also know that sometimes if the pawn is on the f or c file that the endgame is only drawn. But I knew that the endgame I played was always winning as long as my queen was near the pawn, so I tried using my opponents pawn to create a mating net, or forcing a specific sequence to mate.

Great logic and decision! I think most players wouldn't have even considered it as an option so well done
