Lei,Tingjie vs. Vaishali,Rameshbabu - FIDE Women World Blitz 2024 1/2-1/2
In the FIDE Women World Blitz 2024 on 2024.12.30 between Lei Tingjie and Vaishali Rameshbabu, the move Bb7 played by Black is a notable development.
The bishop advance is an attempt to expand its influence in the position.
By capturing a piece earlier in the game, the black side has set up this opportunity for the bishop to take center stage on that specific square.
However, instead of exchanging pieces and simplifying the board, Vaishali's decision makes her position slightly more complex.
Moreover, Lei Tingjie as White could potentially use this move against her, posing an attack on the black king.
Furthermore, by advancing the bishop in such a way, it might not be ideal for long-term play considering the diagonal involved.
