AlJamaat,Khaled vs. Torosyan,Volodya - ISF U15 Gymnasiade Open-B 2025 0-1
In the game between AlJamaat, Khaled (white) and Torosyan, Volodya (black) at the ISF U15 Gymnasiade Open-B 2025 on April 10, 2025, Black's move Qd7 was a peculiar choice. The queen, now without any defenders, has ventured out into open territory. This move results in losing material by giving up one of its own pieces in exchange. By doing so, the opponent gains an advantage, as this piece cannot be easily replaced or compensated for.
Additionally, this move does not take advantage of a free capture opportunity on that specific square. It also fails to utilize the potential mobility of the bishop and misses the chance to escape any incoming attacks by positioning itself in a vulnerable spot. Furthermore, it neglects to safeguard an unprotected piece, allowing it to be potentially attacked by the opponent's pieces.
Despite these drawbacks, this move does develop the queen for active play, allowing it to participate more fully in the game's dynamics.
