Neloy,Debnath vs. Jannatul,Ferdous - GM ZIA Smirity-B 2025 1-0
In the GM ZIA Smirity-B 2025 tournament on 2025.02.18, Neloy Debnath played a move for White that began with the piece being moved from its original position to Ra3. This followed a capture move, which implied a recent exchange of material on the board. However, instead of maintaining material balance, Neloy chose to sacrifice a pawn in exchange for developing their rook more actively.
This development move came at the cost of leaving the piece without adequate protection, as its position was now exposed and vulnerable to attack. The move also failed to utilize the piece's full potential, as it was not used to support any other attacking plans or defenses on the board. Instead, Neloy focused solely on developing their rook for active play, which might have been a missed opportunity to achieve more strategic goals.
The overall assessment of this move is that it can be considered a tactical error, as it prioritized short-term development over long-term material safety and strategic considerations.
