Janik,Marek Tobias vs. Oruzinsky,Juraj - Modransky Cup 2025 1-0

In the Modransky Cup 2025 event on February 21, 2025, between Janik playing with white pieces versus Oruzinsky playing with black pieces, a pivotal moment occurred when Black executed the move Rxe6. This capture move neutralizes an attacking piece, as it removes a potential threat to the material held by Black. By playing Rxe6, Black ignores a stronger capturing opportunity, which would have allowed them to gain more of an advantage in the game. Instead, they focus on gaining tempo and developing their piece, setting up for further action. This move forces White to respond, potentially creating a situation where they are forced to move a piece, giving Black an opportunity to launch a counterattack. The execution of Rxe6 also allows Black to prepare for potential future attacks on one of their pieces, making it well-defended and more difficult for White to make significant progress. Overall, Janik's response will be crucial in determining the outcome of this game.
