Rodrigues,Edgar vs. Lemos,Dawton Almino - BCS-Floripa Super Blitz 2025 1-0
In the BCS-Floripa Super Blitz 2025 event on 2025.01.22, Rodrigues,Edgar, played a Qb1+ move against Lemos,Dawton Almino with black pieces. This follow-up capture move to Qd1 forces Lemos' response and gains an immediate tempo advantage by initiating active play earlier than necessary.
The forceful nature of the move makes Lemos defend his attacked knight, which is now in a relatively safe position. By doing so, Rodrigues gains some protection for his queen piece, but unfortunately, it comes at the cost of potentially under-defending another piece, which remains exposed to potential attacks.
However, by interposing the queen, Rodrigues successfully blocks Lemos' attack on his knight and neutralizes one of black's attacking threats. Additionally, this move also prevents Lemos from developing his dark-squared bishop more efficiently.
