Default Adams in trouble

It looks like he is down a pawn with his kingside pawns very weak.Can he hold
the position.Not sure if he has enough counterplay

K blundered by giving up the h1-a8 diagonal and A can force a Q ending in an
open position, looks like draw ...

In this blunderful game -- the time control is absurd -- Adams missed a win
just after the time control and settled for eternal check.

42...Qe4 won straightforwardly; I think Adams might be a bit shaken up by
that.
