Bai,Adelard vs. Pranav,V. - FIDE Open World Blitz 2024 0-1

In the FIDE Open World Blitz 2024 on December 30, 2024, between Bai Adelard (white) and Pranav V. (black), White's move g3 was played after a capture. This decision resulted in White losing material to Black, which could have been an opportunity for further advantage. However, by choosing g3, White missed the chance to threaten their opponent more directly. Furthermore, this move ignores the potentially stronger threat on g7 that White could have addressed, instead leaving it vulnerable. Moreover, White's piece is now better defended against potential counterplay from Black. Notably, by playing g3, White blocks a possible attack from Black and misses an opportunity for favorable material exchange or further development of their pieces. The move also fails to reveal an underlying attack on a key piece that could have put pressure on Black's position earlier.
