Noe,Christopher vs. Charmeteau,Sven - Grenke Chess Open-A 2025 1-0
In the Grenke Chess Open-A 2025 event on April 19, 2025, between Noe (White) and Charmeteau (Black), Black's move Qb6 followed a capture, posing a threat to material gain. This move ignored an opportunity to respond to White's superior threat chance, instead choosing to reveal its own attacking force.
The queen move also allowed White to kick the opponent's piece, further complicating Black's position. However, this move failed to provide better protection for the underdefended piece, leaving it vulnerable to attack.
Furthermore, Qb6 missed the opportunity to make a favorable material exchange, potentially gaining an advantage in the game. By pinning White's piece to their king, Black was also able to create a strong attacking position.
Despite developing its queen for active play, the move ultimately failed to improve Black's overall pawn structure and left the player with limited mobility.
