Sorry if this has been discussed before, I looked and couldn't find it.
I recently played an OTB game and then we noticed that I had been in check for a while but we had both made several moves since the check took place.
I know it shouldn't have happened and I should have been paying more attention, but what is the correct procedure? Do we go back to the position when the check was made? If so, what happens to the clock in this case if it's a timed game? Or is it a draw?
Your answers would be appreciated.
