Engkvist,Tomas vs. Neukamm,Christian - Fagernes Chess Open 2025 0-1
In the Fagernes Chess Open 2025 on April 16, 2025, White player Engkvist made a move that followed a capture. This capture led to an opportunity being missed, as Engkvist did not pursue a threat that was stronger than his own attack. By ignoring this superior threat chance, Engkvist failed to reveal the true nature of his attack on a piece and lost the initiative. He also missed the chance to seize a winning tempo, which would have put pressure on Black's position. The move allowed Neukamm's opponent piece to be kicked, giving Black an opportunity to counterattack. Furthermore, Engkvist missed the chance to escape the impending attack by not developing his king's role more effectively. He also failed to take advantage of a favorable material exchange and missed the chance to force Neukamm into making a specific move. The move ultimately developed the piece for active play.
