De Dovitiis,Alejo vs. Delgado,Nazareno - 8th Montevideo Open 2025 1-0

In the game between De Dovitiis and Delgado at the 8th Montevideo Open 2025 on February 1st, 2025, Black played the move b5. This move allowed for the development of a piece, which is a key aspect of active play in chess. However, it comes at the cost of missing an opportunity to escape an attack that could have been mitigated by playing this move. The choice of b5 also means that Black has now committed to attacking the queenside, potentially leaving their position vulnerable to counter-attacks. This is a significant deviation from the usual cautious approach often employed in such situations.
