Sadhwani,Raunak vs. Zhao,George - XTX Markets London Masters 2024 1-0

In the game between Raunak Sadhwani and George Zhao at the XTX Markets London Masters 2024 on November 29, 2024, Black's move Ka4 stands out as an unconventional choice. This move misses the opportunity to develop a key piece early in the game, instead opting for a more aggressive approach that may not be entirely well-considered. Instead of developing a piece for passive defense or attacking play, Raunak chooses to develop the pawn on e4, which is a surprising move. It's unclear whether this decision will pay off or lead to complications down the line.
