Stamna,Elisavet vs. Tzima,Anthia - 16th Greek Youth Team-ch 2024 1-0

In the 16th Greek Youth Team-ch 2024 on 2024.11.30 between Stamna Elisavet (white) and Tzima Anthia (black), the chess move c4 is characterized as a proactive opening that threatens to gain a material advantage by putting pressure on Black's position. This aggressive pawn play aims to challenge Black's central control, forcing them to respond and potentially creating an imbalance in the game. The move also proposes a potential trade of pawns, offering a way for both players to equalize the positions. However, it is worth noting that this pawn exchange might not be the most beneficial one, as it could limit Black's mobility. Furthermore, c4 encourages White to develop their bishop on the queenside, which may lead to better mobility and control of the board in the long run. On the other hand, playing c4 also means missing out on the opportunity to develop a piece more quickly and attackatively. The move does gain some tempo advantage, as it puts Black's position under pressure from the very beginning. Overall, c4 is a double-edged pawn play that requires careful consideration of its consequences in this particular game between Stamna Elisavet and Tzima Anthia.
