f6 in the Caro-Kann advance

Ummm....

I'm not sure if I like an early f6 in the Advanced I believe that first preparing and move c6-c5 then worrying about breaking out with f6

f6 is good in some situations in the advance variation - not this one. It's used as a way to free development when it's restricted, and when the knight has e7-f5 your development is easy. Incidentally, in the Bd3 variation here (NOT a good variation for white), after Qxd3, Qa5+! and Qa6! has equalised for black because white either accepts the queen trade or accepts a difficult to castle position.

Sorry...

I didn't mean that position exactly.  I was kinda in a rush.  But...f6 in the Advance variation is ok?

Specifically in the diagrammed position, the Qa5+->Qa6 plan mentioned is impossible, so Black should adapt with 6...c5!

But yes, there are many cases where f6 is a useful move in the advance Caro. Everything comes down to specific lines, so it's hard to give any rules.
