Yeganegi,Barad vs. Karvatskyi,Oleksii - ISF U15 Gymnasiade Open-B 2025 1-0
In the ISF U15 Gymnasiade Open-B 2025 event on April 10, 2025, Black player Karvatskyi made the move Kg8. This move allowed White player Yeganegi to launch an attack, but instead of retreating from danger, Karvatskyi chose to defend the king by moving it to e8. Unfortunately, this decision blocked a potential escape route for the attacked piece and missed the opportunity to prevent further complications. By defending the unprotected piece, Karvatskyi actually strengthened its position, making it more difficult for White to launch another attack. However, this defensive strategy also prevented any additional protection from being provided to an underdefended piece. The move Kg8 ultimately developed the king's mobility and prepared it for active play, setting up future opportunities for counterplay.
