In chess, the term "favorable tension" refers to a situation where the pieces on the board are positioned in such a way that one player has a slight advantage over the other. This advantage can come in many forms, such as having more space to maneuver, greater control over key squares, or the ability to create threats against the opponent's position. Favorable tension is an important concept in chess, as it allows a player to exert pressure on the opponent's position and potentially gain an advantage. It is important to remember that favorable tension is a relative concept and can change over the course of a game.
