I don't know what my "best" game would be objectively, but I think I had the most fun playing the black side of this sharp Sicilian Sveshnikov:
Game 8919273

Good game! Tough opponent in this one. Correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't 20.f5 win blacks bishop?
After 20.f5 Bxf1 and now:
a)21.Bxd4 Qxd6 and black is the exchange up and has gotten rid of whites passed pawn.
b)21.Qxd4 exd4 22.fxg6 dxc3 and black is clearly winning
c)21.fxg6 Nf3+ is interesting after 22.Kxf1 Nxd2+ 23.Ke2 Nc4 and white is the exchange down but life looks difficult for black with whites strong passed pawn and active pieces.
If Black avoids this and plays 20...Bxf5 then something like 21.Nd5 may be an option where I am not sure what the result should be. (Feel free to correct any of this)
Perhaps not my best but the shot at the end was a surprise

it's been a while since I played a reasonable game. it may not be my very best. still it was a decent effort and very satisfactry to finally winning a good game again.
my white opponent chose the offbeat 1.a3 which allowed me to develop quickly and open the position with the temporary pawn sacrifice 6.c5.
i believe i reacted accurately to his Nxf7?! and after 17...Nd3+ 18.Ke2? i was soon able to enter into the 7th rank through the nice Nxf2 tactic, and as if he wasn't already warned i was able to set up a nice backrank mate !!
