Meszaros,Casey Ryan vs. Ondreicka,Roman - Modransky Cup 2025 1/2-1/2

In the game of Meszaros vs Casey Ryan at the Modransky Cup 2025 on 2025.02.21, White played the move Bc3. This development move aims to enhance the mobility of the bishop by advancing it one square further down the diagonal. The move misses an opportunity to launch a more aggressive attack, instead prioritizing the bishop's increased activity over potential threat chances. By playing Bc3, White also fails to better protect an underdefended piece that is now more securely positioned on c6 as a result of this play. This choice blocks a potential opponent's attacking attempt and shifts control in favor of White. Overall, White has opted for a more active bishop and developed it for further play with the goal of gaining a strategic advantage in the game.
