13... Be6
?? This move spells disaster for Black. 13...Kf8 14.Nd4 Nc6 and white is better of course.

 
14. Qxb7
And Black resigned, which I think was a bit premature. He could have tried 14...Be5 where white has to be really careful: 15.Kc2 (forced) 15...Bxa1 16.Qxa8 Bf5 17.Kd1 0-0 but this leaves black two pawns behind and something like 18.Qf3 wins for white. Time left on the clock - White: 8:08 - Black:7:56
