In the game between Leeb Simon and Bures Jaroslav of AUT Bundesliga 2024-25 on April 4, 2025, White's move Qh5+ was made. This aggressive pawn storm aimed to exploit Black's position by putting pressure on their king. However, it ultimately missed the chance to gain a decisive advantage by not threatening any concrete material gain. Instead, it allowed Black to kick back and neutralize the attack with ease. Moreover, White's move set up a clever pin that put pressure on an opponent's piece, making it difficult for them to respond without losing something valuable. This tactical device created a fork, posing multiple threats at once and forcing Black to make a tough decision about which piece to sacrifice or protect. Finally, the Queen's development on h5 also marked a significant shift in White's position, paving the way for active play in the center of the board.
