Ghasi,Ameet K vs. Eliseev,Sergey - Fagernes Chess GM-Swiss 2025 1/2-1/2
In the Fagernes Chess GM-Swiss 2025 event on 2025.04.13, a notable move made by Black player Eliseev was Re7+. This pawn advance appears to have missed an opportunity to threaten directly, instead opting to ignore a more potent threat chance. Furthermore, it failed to reveal an attack on a piece, potentially leaving White's position somewhat clearer than intended. However, the move did gain tempo advantage by forcing White's hand, which in turn defended the attacked piece. Notably, this piece is now well shielded from potential attacks.
Additionally, this move seems to have missed a chance to provide better protection for an underdefended piece, potentially leaving it vulnerable in the future. Nevertheless, Re7+ blocks a potential opponent attack on one of their pieces. Ultimately, the move fails to force the enemy to make a move, and as a result, does not develop the pawn for active play.
