Prithu Gupta vs. Repka,Christopher - US Masters 2024 1-0

In the US Masters 2024 event on November 29, 2024, between Prithu Gupta playing with white pieces and Christopher Repka playing with black pieces, the move Nc6 by Black was made. This move allows for active play development and puts pressure on White's position, potentially threatening material gain. By playing Nc6, Black misses an opportunity to escape a potential attack on their piece, as this square is somewhat exposed and could be targeted by White's pieces. On the other hand, the move Nc6 does not reveal any blocked attacks, but rather sets the stage for future counterplay and development of other pieces. The move also allows White's opponent to potentially kick their knight away from a vulnerable position, adding another layer of complexity to the game.
