Hebden,Mark L vs. Macak,Stefan - 4NCL Div 1 2024-25 1/2-1/2

In the game between Mark L Hebden (White) and Stefan Macak (Black), played at the 4NCL Div 1 event on November 23, 2024, White made the move b6. This exchange of material is not necessarily advantageous for White, as it leaves their bishop without any defenders. Furthermore, this piece sacrifice does not seem to be justified by any specific plan or strategy. Additionally, the opportunity to defend the unprotected pawn on the b-file was missed. The move also fails to develop another piece, which could have provided more active play. Instead, the bishop is developed for its own sake, without any apparent long-term benefits.
