Karisik,Nenad vs. Rogers,Tim L - 37th Belgrade Trophy 2024 1-0
In the 37th Belgrade Trophy 2024 on November 23, 2024, between players Karisik (white) and Rogers (black), the move Qg6 was played by black player Rogers. This move involves exchanging material with white player Karisik, putting a piece in an isolated position without sufficient defenders. It also involves sacrificing a piece that is not crucial to the game's outcome, potentially weakening the black pawn structure.
Furthermore, Rogers missed the opportunity to counter-attack against Karisik's position and defend their own pieces more effectively. Additionally, by playing Qg6, Rogers failed to protect an underdefended piece or use it as a powerful attacking force. On the other hand, this move does pin Karisik's queen to their king, creating potential pressure.
However, one could also argue that Rogers did develop their queen piece for active play, which may have opened up new possibilities for counter-attacks in the future.
