Giri, Anish vs. Caruana, Fabiano - Main Event 1/2-1/2

In the game between Anish Giri and Fabiano Caruana during the Main Event on June 11, 2024, Fabiano Caruana, playing as black, made the move Qcf6. This move was notable because it missed opportunities to both threaten and reveal attacks on opposing pieces. It also failed to provide a better escape from an impending attack and did not adequately defend an attacked piece. Despite this, the move did manage to partially defend a vulnerable piece on the board. Overall, Qcf6 was a move that overlooked several strategic possibilities for both attack and defense, though it did contribute to the development of Caruana's pieces for more active play.
