In this game, Chernin demonstrated the importance of exposing an opponent’s king when attacking it. Indeed, at move 20, he sacrificed his queen to open the g file and expose his opponent’s king. He then prepared a powerful attack by combining the strengths of his rook and bishop in order to deliver checkmate on Van Der Wiel’s king, who had very few viable escape options.
