Best moves?

Black to move; what would have been the best continuation? I played 29. ...Rf6?, and then ran out of time; perhaps 29. ...Rxb3 was the move I should've played.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Any comments?

Rf8 gets you his knight

After 29. ...Rf8 , what moves would follow?

(I like 29. ...Rxb3 because I can follow with 30. ... Rb4, with a possible pin or discovered check).

With Rxb3, you would be able to pin his rook to his king after Rxe4 Rb4; but, he could just move his king and that move was pointless, freeing his knight. Note that he can't swap rooks with you as it would give you and unstoppable passed pawn.

Ok, thanks. :)
