In the TCh-NOR Elite 2023-24 event on October 27, 2023, the high-stakes chess match between Magnus Carlsen and Momchil Petkov featured a crucial move, Kc4, executed by the black pieces. However, this move inadvertently allowed an opponent's piece to be kicked, potentially creating an opening for a counter-attack. Despite this, it effectively defended a piece that was under immediate threat, ensuring its safety on the board. Regrettably, it missed the opportunity to provide a stronger defense for another unprotected piece, potentially leaving it vulnerable to future attacks from the white side. Furthermore, it failed to offer a more effective means of escape from an impending attack, potentially compromising Black's position in the game.
