Miles Patterson (1862) vs Nick Beare (1212), ANU Rd1, 0-1

Lucky game with very little time for both players from move 30 onwards. I made a crucial mistake on 43.Rxd4 should have played 43.Nd7 it works despite the impending pin Rb7. White should have won afterwards by simply pushing the passed B pawn, but wasted time by making moves like 51.Kc6 and 54.Kc6 due to time pressure. 56.b7 was a complete blunder with 56.Ra1 seeming to end in a draw after a bunch of rook checks on the white king.
