There's also mules too, meaning if both players lose all their supply and workers, only the terran can keep mining.
In the end going for a base trade against Terran is risky at best, and the protoss usually has to bank on taking out the command centres and winning with DTs.

He really couldn't turn back anyway. He'd be running into a tank line(aka at best he'd loose most his army and kill the terran army), having lost his natural and 3rd. He'd be guaranteed a loss, atleast base trading he could possibly get a draw and very unlikely as it might be a win.

Select is a sneaky sneaky man.

Ace is pretty far behind now, good pressure by Select
|
Really nice tricksy move.
|
I'm not sure why Ace cancelled the Nexus, it would've been hard to hold but not impossible by any means.

Select thinks that Ace might have been trying to expand and go DT at the same time? o.O
