In the game between Blokhin,Alexey (white) and Gal,Moshe (black) at the FIDE WSTC Open 65 2025 on 2025.02.18, a pivotal move was made by white: Kg2. This move not only fails to evade an impending attack but also amplifies the king's vulnerability. By playing this move, Blokhin missed an opportunity to sidestep danger and instead took center stage in defending his position.
