Featured is the highly accurate chess game between R Praggnanandhaa and Nijat Abasov from Round 6 of the 2024 FIDE Candidates. The opening is a Tarrasch Defense, Symmetrical variation where Praggnanandhaa is quickly in possession of a queenside majority. Abasov obtains an unopposed light-squared bishop by move 17, and attempts to activate it via a central breakthrough. Oddly enough, that light-squared bishop never takes a single step in the whole game!
