Sason,Noam vs. Grechin,Yan - Israel Youth-ch U12 2025 1-0
In the game between Sason,Noam (white) and Grechin,Yan (black) in the Israel Youth-ch U12 2025 event on April 6, 2025, Noam made a bold move by playing Qc5 with black pieces.
This daring move threatens to gain material, as it aims to capture a valuable piece from Grechin's position. However, it also comes with the cost of losing material in exchange, which could potentially put Noam's own pieces at risk.
Despite this, the move presents an opportunity for a potential equal trade, where both players would give up material and gain equally valued pieces. Furthermore, Qc5 forces Grechin to make a piece move, disrupting his plans and creating space for Noam to maneuver.
Furthermore, moving the queen to c5 connects with the rooks on the board, allowing for synergy between these powerful pieces. This development also gains Noam a tempo advantage over Grechin, giving him an opportunity to take control of the center and dictate the flow of the game.
However, it's worth noting that Qc5 may not be the best escape from Grechin's attack, as it doesn't provide sufficient protection for his underdefended piece. Additionally, Noam misses out on the chance to develop a stronger piece by avoiding a potential advantage. Nevertheless, the move does develop the queen for active play, putting pressure on Grechin and creating possibilities for counterplay.
