The reason you are better at 15+10 is because you have improved since the last time you played 15+10. Also maybe early 2000s do not actually play 15+10, and they are still in 10+0 mindsets.
"course". The only Gotham course I bought is the queens gambit declined. Everything else is build on watching free TH-cam videos and using engine analysis to learn more and more. You can learn openings for free, it just takes more time
its crazy that 2000+ rated players are dropping pieces to 2 move tactics in 15+10 games. hurr durr lets give a check without looking at the follow up for blacks most obvious king move. if your plan is to just hang the piece after Kg7 then its a massive blunder. then your opponent loses a piece again by going for the wrong recapture by putting a heavy piece in front of an under-defended piece. when you blundered the bishop that position does look tricky because even if you defend the bishop with the rook it looks like opponent could have Rxf7 to distract the rook from defending the other rook. but i guess at best its just a bad way for white to trade rooks to win a pawn. it could be part of it is you know your openings well and you are playing some tricky lines and opponents are feeling under pressure so they start making mistakes. presumably, this guy has never seen a6 before then just loses a pawn out of the opening and is stuck on the back foot because he doesn't know how to put pressure on your position in these lines. white's logic after seeing a6 should be black is trying to greed the pawn and defend it with b5 so if you can't find a defence then should just bail out with cxd and then after the game check opening tree and the engine for the best way to deal with it in the future. if lots of people are just memorizing common lines and are otherwise quite weak then playing these side lines is a really good strategy because if you can get people out of prep then you are playing a human instead of stockfish.
Great game! Love this series and Chessly is amazing too! lol
