Rogowski,Jaroslaw vs. Zych,Marek - ESTCC-50 2025 1/2-1/2
In the game ESTCC-50 2025 between Rogowski and Zych on April 8, 2025, White played the move Qxc5. This is a capture move that takes the black queen from the board. The move puts pressure on Black's position, threatening to gain a material advantage. However, it appears that White prioritized capturing material over exploring other strategic options, ignoring potential threats.
The move also allows Zych's pieces to potentially counter-attack, as it frees up space for Black's rooks and pawns to maneuver. Furthermore, the capture of the queen creates a fork, attacking both Zych's queenside and kingside pieces simultaneously. Despite this, White missed an opportunity to develop one of their own pieces, which could have enhanced their overall position.
On the plus side, Qxc5 does develop White's queen piece for active play, potentially leading to more dynamic and aggressive gameplay.
