Nitin,S.. vs. Murzin,Volodar - Singapore Open-A 2024 0-1

In the Singapore Open-A 2024 on November 29th, Nitin played a sharp move by advancing his rook from Ra5, threatening material gain and forcing Murzin to respond. This aggressive maneuver utilizes the rook's position behind a passed pawn to create pressure on Black's position. By playing Ra5, Nitin gains a tempo advantage, allowing him to potentially accelerate his development and launch a strong attack. However, this move also leaves Nitin's queen underdeveloped, which might be an oversight in his overall strategy.
