Sharma Isha vs. Nemeth,Zalan - SixDays Budapest January IM-C 2025 0-1
In the game between Sharma Isha and Nemeth, Zalan at SixDays Budapest January IM-C 2025 on 2025.01.28, White played Qc2. This move aims to propose a potential equal piece trade with Black, allowing White to kick an opponent's piece if needed. However, it fails to better escape from an impending attack, putting the queen in a vulnerable position.
The move also fails to provide better protection for a potentially underdefended pawn, as the queen is currently unsecured. Moreover, developing this piece seems to be overlooked, which could have led to more active play. Nonetheless, Qc2 develops the queen, allowing it to participate in future plays.
