Lichess Game of the Month November - Contest

https://lichess.org/study/CgPu9L1g/ve1jYsHI

This is my least favourite game ever but I have to admit, I haven’t seen a cow variation setup often and I can’t believe i actually lost to chimp

I think you should have avoided 17.Qxf3 and 17.Na5 makes it useless.

what I can explain about this game is all about critical moments, and when to play it as if it is the right decision.
for example, I should have played 16.d6 sooner after analysing, and 18.Qe2 is the best square according to my calculations but not Qf4. next, 20.a5 is also an idea to push the d-pawn through his territory, and it might have a chance for me to make d8 queen, if my opponent were not playing c6 and stop my promotion.
in the game I although had made some minor mistakes, I just wanna keep all my pieces and go straight at the weak king, posing threats like 30.Rh4 and a brilliant move 32.Re4 at the end.

Nice greek gift sacrifice. The Qh6 Nce4 follow up is important, without it white wouldn't be winning.

Vihaan, I don't think it counts, as the contest started on December 1st. Sorry. But the game is good. You might want to submit it to game of December on January 1st.
