Hjartarson,Johann vs. Unzicker,Ferdinand - Reykjavik Open 2025 1-0

In the Reykjavik Open 2025 event on April 10, 2025, Ferdinand Unzicker played a5 against Johann Hjartarson with white pieces. This move follows a capture and allows for an opponent's piece to be kicked out of the way. However, it misses an opportunity to develop a key piece earlier in the game, instead opting to prepare for active play by developing one of his own pieces. The move is somewhat counterintuitive, as it seems to prioritize setup over immediate development. Nonetheless, it does demonstrate Unzicker's attention to detail and ability to think several moves ahead.
