Burriel Ureta,Raul vs. Donate Villalba,Juan Francisco - 21st Open Gran Hotel Bali-B 2024 1/2-1/2
In the 21st Open Gran Hotel Bali-B 2024 chess game on November 30, 2024, between Raul Burriel Ureta playing with white pieces versus Juan Francisco Donate Villalba playing with black pieces, Black's move Qh4+ is a capture that follows up on a previous attack. However, instead of leveraging this momentum to launch a more significant assault, it misses the opportunity to put pressure on White's position.
Instead, it ignores a stronger threat chance, which would have given Black an advantage. The move also fails to reveal any attacks on pieces, allowing White to potentially kick one of Black's pieces with relative impunity. Furthermore, this allows White to defend itself by focusing on protecting its attacked piece, rendering the attack somewhat moot.
Moreover, Qh4+ misses a chance to provide better protection for a piece that was previously underdefended. Despite being able to develop one of its pieces, it fails to utilize this opportunity for active play.
