Stachowiak,Kamil vs. Kusa,Jakub - Slovakian ECo-C Extraliga 2024-25 1/2-1/2

In the game between Stachowiak,Kamil (White) and Kusa,Jakub (Black) from the Slovakian ECo-C Extraliga 2024-25 on 2024.11.24, Black's move Qe7 was a missed opportunity to launch an attack on White's position. This move ignores a significant threat chance that could have led to a strong advantage for Black. By playing Qe7, Black also fails to reveal any potential attacks on pieces, leaving White with no clear indication of the direction of the game. Furthermore, this move does not force White to make a defensive move, allowing White to maintain control over the center of the board. Additionally, Qe7 does not take advantage of better piece development opportunities, as it keeps the queen somewhat passive and restricted in its movements. However, playing Qe7 does pin one of White's pieces against their king. Nevertheless, this pinning effect is limited by the relatively weak position of Black's queen on e7.
