Did i have a chance?


Although my opponent was classical number 75, i did play well for the first few moves. Where did i juat gave it away? Could it have been prevented?
Pls analyse my game.

@MohammadAayanKhan you gave your game in the first few moves where you thought you did well I warned you your setup would not work against strong players
Yup this is not the way to play bro . Don't be so lazy and learn a theoretical opening not the one in which u have to do same things everytime
@Mahith1708 and @rapidclasscalonly I don't think there is anything wrong in this opening. I wonder why people continue to insist me to learn a new opening. People always focus on the centre 4 squares, and I wonder why do they do that. I have reached 2000 in rapid with this opening only, and I don't think there is a need to learn a new one.
Anyways, thnx for ur comments.
@MohammadAayanKhan is right. The opening itself wasn't guilty for his defeat.

10...c6.? is just slow and stupid. If you played Nb4 (which was totaly correct), then why not 10...d5.! His white bishop is awkwardly standing on e4 and you could sue him for your own benefit.

Anyway, after c6, you were getting squeezed up. But still, he lacked pieces to deliver you a finishing blow. But then 15...Qe7.?? happened. The thing is, you will get squeezed if you do nothing.

15...de5.! was necessary. After he captures 16.fe5 back, then the move 16...f6! was necessary. You have to give your knight a breathing space. After 17.e6, you are probably worse, but you are still fighthing.

So the thing is, the reason why you lost is your lack of understanding the position itself, not the opening.
"I have reached 2000 in rapid with this opening only, and I don't think there is a need to learn a new one."

You might have a point (if that was anywhere near the top Rapid rating).
@MohammadAayanKhan
Well, you are a 2000 rated player and still you did not play that good.
So, it's better to analyse the game using Stockfish as it would be better for you.
Also, you started losing from the point you missed a tactic of pin: 19. Bxe5 was blunder. It was better to play d4. after losing rook, there was no reason for you lose. That was the game changing moment.
you played very weird. better play an openingthat you know actual theory
I get it. I'm good at endgames, in middle games that is my weakness. Openings are also not my thing.
