In the game between Isbilir, Levin playing with white pieces and Costa, Leonardo playing with black pieces during the 27th OIBM on October 26, 2024, the move Nxf7 was played. This move captures a pawn while simultaneously posing a significant threat to black's rook and bishop. By executing this move, White effectively gains material advantage, as it forces Black into a defensive position. The knight's advance to f7 also leaves it unsupported, creating a vulnerability that Black must address. While this move is aggressive and develops White's position actively, it overlooks the potential for better piece coordination and fails to connect rooks effectively. Additionally, it misses opportunities for enhanced mobility of the bishop and does not capitalize on a chance to escape an impending attack. Overall, Nxf7 is characterized by its dual nature of threatening material gain while exposing weaknesses in White's position. This bold choice reflects an aggressive strategy but also highlights areas where more strategic development could have been pursued.
