Sampsonoglou,Dimitrios vs. Raptis,Filippos - 16th Greek Youth Team-ch 2024 0-1

In the 16th Greek Youth Team-ch 2024 event on November 29, 2024, White player Sampsonoglou made a significant move with his Queen piece moving to the h6 square. This move allows Black's opponent piece to gain momentum by kicking it out of its current position. The same move also puts pressure on Black's piece by pinning it against a more valuable opponent piece. Furthermore, this Queen move creates a fork that simultaneously attacks two pieces belonging to Black player Raptis, posing a threat. However, Sampsonoglou's decision not to develop another piece with his Queen at the h6 square can be seen as a missed opportunity for further aggressive play. Nevertheless, utilizing the Queen at h6 does set up active play in the future games by preparing to control key areas of the board.
