It cost too much to be passive in the Open sicillian.  Bxe3? This doesn't take advantage of White's mistake.

Nxe3 Be6 15. Be2 O-O 16. O-O Qb6 17. Nd5? Entering a very passive position for White. Nxd5! 18. exd5 Bd7 Black bishop and centeral pawns are better than White's. 19. Qd2 f5! 20. Rfe1 Rac8 21. Bd1? Bf1 is superior Rc4! 22. Bc2 Qc5! 23. Re2? b4! A nice example of the minority attack. 24. Bd3 bxc3 25. bxc3 Rxc3 Black  has won a pawn. 26. Qd1 Rc8
