Ghosh,Chanchal Kumer vs. Islam,Khandaker Aminul - GM ZIA Smirity-A 2025 0-1
In the game between Ghosh and Chanchal Kumer (White) versus Islam and Khandaker Aminul (Black), played on 2025.02.18 at GM ZIA Smirity-A 2025 event, Black's move Qc7+ was a strategic choice. This move offered an equal trade of pieces with White, but it ultimately failed to threaten the opponent, instead proposing a mutual exchange. By moving the queen to c7+, Black missed the chance to reveal an attack on the piece and instead forced White's hand by putting pressure on their position. This led to a tempo advantage for Black, allowing them to gain an upper hand in the game.
However, this move also meant that Black was missing opportunities to protect their own pieces from potential attacks. The queen is now relatively well-defended, but it could have been better protected with additional support. Furthermore, by moving the queen to c7+, Black blocked White's potential attack on a certain piece, but missed the chance to take advantage of this and launch a counterattack.
Overall, while Qc7+ was a solid move for Black, it failed to achieve its full potential due to missing opportunities to threaten White and protect their own pieces.
