Afreed T Khan vs. Sragvidha S - 2nd Namma Bengaluru Open-B 2025 1-0
In the 2nd Namma Bengaluru Open-B 2025 on 2025.04.10, a pivotal moment in the game occurred when Afreed T Khan played the move Nxh5 with white pieces against Sragvidha S with black pieces. This capture move is notable for its boldness, as it sacrifices material to gain a strategic advantage.
The move threatens to win a significant material advantage, but instead of focusing on this immediate gain, it ignores a more substantial threat chance that could have led to a stronger position.
Furthermore, by not revealing the attack on Sragvidha S's piece, Afreed T Khan leaves their opponent unaware of the danger lurking behind. This oversight allows Sragvidha S to potentially kick the attacking piece with counterplay.
Moreover, by missing the opportunity to escape the attack, Afreed T Khan fails to create a safe haven for their piece, leaving it vulnerable to being captured or attacked further.
Lastly, the move also misses the chance to develop another piece for active play, indicating a slight lack of focus on overall positional development.
