In the game between Johannes Tschernatsch and Thomas Bauland at the Krefelder Summer Open 2024 on August 1, 2024, Bauland played the move f6. This move, while threatening a potential material gain, overlooks a stronger chance to exploit a critical threat. It inadvertently blocks an active attack, missing the optimal moment to reveal an attack and giving Tschernatsch the opportunity to reposition a piece. Additionally, the move neglects a better knight move and fails to notice a more advantageous piece exchange. By playing f6, Bauland allows Tschernatsch to kick a piece, missing the chance to escape from a looming attack. It also overlooks the chance to defend an unprotected piece and the opportunity to develop a piece more effectively.
