I was white in this bullet game vs NM. Thoughts?
Would 15. Bc5 not been preferable to Bxg7? I'm not sure why you chose to sac the bishop. He couldn't queen his d-pawn very easily with your pair of rooks on the 1st rank.
Engine seems to confirm that.
Following that, 20. Rfe1 seems to me to be an inaccuracy or mistake. I'm not sure which. I would have played 20. Ra-c1. If 20 ...Rxc3 21. Rxc3 Nxc3 22. Qg3+ forking king and knight.
Check the engine to see if that confirms my first impression.
In any case, it's bullet. Mistakes will happen if you're careful with your time control.
