Scheftlein,Richard vs. Hoyer,Max - Deutsche Unimeisterschaft 2024 1-0
In the Deutsche Unimeisterschaft 2024 on November 30, 2024, between Richard Scheftlein playing with white pieces and Max Hoyer playing with black pieces, a pivotal moment occurred when Black played Rc6. This move can be described as: Despite recognizing the potential threat of Rc6, Richard hesitated to challenge it head-on, instead opting for an equal piece trade that didn't take full advantage of its opportunities. Meanwhile, the knight on c6 was left somewhat passive, missing a more active and better-placed move. The failure to capture the outpost on c6 allowed White to maintain control of key territory. Furthermore, Richard missed chances to use his pieces to escape the attack or create counterplay, instead allowing Black's piece development to become an opportunity for active play.
