Axelrod,Arie vs. Alekseev,Evgeny - Israeli Championship 2024 0-1

In the Israeli Championship 2024 on January 21, 2025, White player Axelrod made the move Kf3, which failed to capitalize on a potential attack by revealing a blocked attack. The move allowed Black player Alekseev to kick an opponent's piece with relative ease. By not taking advantage of the opportunity to develop his pawn, Axelrod missed a chance to create a stronger foundation for his position. However, it is worth noting that developing the king's fianchetto piece does provide active play and helps control the center of the board. Unfortunately, this move also made it more difficult for Axelrod to escape from Black's attack in the long run.
