11...Qe7 12.Bd2 Be6 13.Qb5
Black is not worried about this move. He has a plan.
13...a6
This is an expensive tempo. More helpful is 13...Kd7.
14.Qxb7
14...Kf7
Seeking safety on the Kingside, instead of helping to shore up the Queenside with 14...Kd7. After this, his game falls apart. Quite possibly, the clock had a hand in it.
