Introduction :

I haven't played a Classical chess game since the Covid-19 period in 2020 so i decided to Join a team yesterday and play in the Ongoing Rated league.
I played for the Team as a Wildcard,meaning i just have to play in few rounds alone for them.

Round 5

It was an important round for my team as they needed to win. It is a Six player team event and i was placed on board 2 against a strong 2042+ Rated junior.
I was white and had the most chances but i couldn't convert and i had to settle for a draw.
Here is a Gif of the game

It was a Caro khan Opening as black maintained a solid pawn structure and tried to fight for Equality, Black did well till move 19.f5?

How should white proceed?

Well I missed the move sequence and ended up settling for a draw

Found it Anby247! I have sent a friend Request. You can send a slow chess challenge with your favourite time
My username is "Samostically

Sweet! I found it! I sent you a challenge in my most favorite format: chess960. Yes, my favorite time is max (14 days), not because this is the speed I play, but because the clock is not going into our game. I even deactivated the preset for automatically claiming a win. So don't expect me to win because you forgot your move. Just re-visit our game and play your next move. ;-)

If you want to play a standard chess instead of 960, please send a challenge the way you like it.
