Kukla,Tomas vs. Ronaj,Filip - Modransky Cup 2025 1-0

In the Modransky Cup 2025 match between Kukla,Tomas (white) and Ronaj,Filip (black), on February 23, 2025, Black played the move Qg6+. This followed a capture, but instead of pressing the advantage, it missed an opportunity to threaten more effectively. By not considering the superior threat chance, Black neglected a significant advantage. Moreover, by failing to capture material, Black forfeited potential benefits from taking something that would have weakened White's position. Additionally, this move allowed White to kick an opponent's piece, which is now well defended due to Black's oversight. It appears that Black also missed better protection for an underdefended piece, leaving it exposed and vulnerable to attack. However, the most notable issue with Qg6+ was that it blocked a potential attack by White on another piece, thereby preventing any further pressure from being applied. In terms of material exchange, this move did not offer any favorable opportunities for Black. Finally, despite developing the queen's piece for active play, Qg6+ ultimately hindered Black's ability to develop other pieces and launch a successful counterattack.
