Makhnev,Denis vs. Mitusov,Semen - Fagernes Chess GM-Swiss 2025 1-0

In the Fagernes Chess GM-Swiss 2025 event on 2025.04.15, Denis Makhnev played a Be6 move as Black against Semen Mitusov's White pieces. This move allows the bishop to develop and potentially contribute to active play. However, by playing Be6, Makhnev misses an opportunity to escape an impending attack on his position. The bishop also fails to provide better protection for an underdefended piece and blocks an opponent's potential attack. Furthermore, the bishop develops a piece that is not well utilized in terms of its defensive capabilities, as it could have been used to safeguard an unprotected piece more effectively.
