Queen versus 3 pieces - Fajarowicz game

A couple of hours ago I played this OTB game in a team match:



We got an interesting position where I had a queen for three minor pieces. I quite like material imbalances in my games and had not had this constellation before.

The game ended in a draw, but the position at the end was better for me.
The brave person on moves 2 & 3 did not care about the strength of his opponent and even with black played a sharp variation trying to win and not afraid of losing.
The cowardly person on move 39 accepted the draw in a winning position, with time control almost reached and against the same higher rated opponent...
Do not accept a draw in a winning position.
If you play for a draw, then do not play Budapest Gambit and even less the Fajarowicz Variation.
