Felsberger,Alfred vs. Spalir,Jernej - Austria 2nd BL-Mitte 2024-25 1-0

In the game between Alfred Felsberger and Jernej Spalir at Austria 2nd BL-Mitte 2024-25 on April 4th, 2025, Black's move Rd6 is notable for actively advancing a rook pawn without consideration for its potential impact on the rest of the position. This gambit of material is made in exchange for a strategic initiative that could have been seized by playing a more cautious move. By choosing to sacrifice this pawn, Black effectively opens up a file for White's rook to potentially exploit, forcing Spalir's opponent to respond and potentially weakening their own pawn structure.
