Chess is an interesting, engaging game that requires players both skill and strategy. Chess has appeared for centuries as a game for intellectuals and scholars; However, real chess players must have a certain level of intelligence. However, that does not mean that children always lose against adults in chess. Read on to learn how to play chess - a game with a long history and considered one of the best board games.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Master the rules of the game, chess board and chess pieces

1. 

   Master the pieces and how they move. Each type of chess piece has different moves. Below are the names of the pieces along with how they move (some exceptions will be discussed later):
   • Good: The most basic chess piece in chess (each side has 8 Pawns). On the first move, Pawn may move forward one or two squares, but may advance only one square at a later time. Pawns can only attack other units diagonally forward by one square and cannot move back.
   • Vehicle: The car looks like a tower in a castle. It can be either sideways or as long as it should be if it is not obstructed. A vehicle can attack units in its path.
   • Code: The symbol of Ma is a horse. This is also the most complicated chess piece. The code follows the letter 'L' is made up of two horizontal and one vertical square, or one horizontal and two vertical cells, the letter 'L' can be tilted in all directions. Code is Only units can jump over the heads of other units. It only attacks units within the cells it can jump to.
   • Statue: The statue only goes diagonally, but you can go as many squares as you want unless blocked. This piece looks like the hat of the Christian bishop.
   • Queen: Queen is the most powerful piece on the board (usually has a more feminine crown than King). It can move sideways, vertically, or diagonally at will and attack in any direction.
   • King: The king can only move one square per turn, moving in all directions. The way the King attacks is similar. This is your chess piece at all costs impossible to loseBecause you will lose if you lose the King.
   • Remember the strengths of each piece.
     • The king is the most important chess piece and needs to be protected.
     • The Queen is the most versatile and also the best support for other troops, often used in attack pair up. The Queen combines the movement of both the Statue and the Rook in the same piece. This is an important piece similar to the king's piece.
     • The Knight is an effective piece for a surprise attack or pairing. Ma's movement rules often confuse new players and get little attention from them.
     • Statues are effective chess pieces when in the open position.However, many beginners often do not appreciate the bishop and do not take advantage of it.
     • Vehicles are powerful pieces and they have a wide range of movement. Vehicles work best on empty rows and columns.
     • Pawns don't seem of value, but they can be used to effectively trap an opponent, for example, to grab a stronger piece. If you know how to use it, you can use Pawn to check all the flags!

2. 

   
   
   Understand what is "checkmate". If your King is checked, your King is being attacked by the opponent. When the King is screened, you must disintegrate water right in the next step. You can disintegrate water in three ways:
   • Move the King to a safe slot. UMBRELLA safe is the position where the King is not shown.
   • Getting checkmate.
   • Block the line with another chess piece. This way are not Works if checkmate is Pawn or Knight.
     • If you can not Do one of the three methods above and the King is still checked, the game is over and you lose.

3. 

   
   
   Understand the concept of the game. In chess, you try to capture the opponent's King and vice versa. Though this was the primary objective, an additional objective was to protect the King's army from being captured. You accomplish this goal by capturing as many enemy units as possible, or by stopping them from capturing your own.
   • Chess is a game of wisdom and strategy. There are many moves and rules that beginners won't be able to foresee or understand when getting started. Please be patient! The more you play, the more fun it will be.

4. 

   
   
   Chess board layout. After getting used to the pieces, you can start making the board. Place the board so that the bottom right square of each player is white. The layout of the chess pieces is as follows:
   • Put all Pawns in the second row in front of you. Your and your opponent's pieces are separated by a "wall" of Pawns.
   • Place a Rook on each corner of the board on your side.
   • Place a Knight next to each Rook and a Bishop next to each Knight.
   • Place the Queen in one of the two remaining cells in the first row, depending on the color of the piece (i.e. if you have a black Queen, put it in the black box; if it's a white Queen, put it in the white box ).
   • Finally, place the King in the last remaining square. Check if the layout of the opponent's pieces is the same. The two Queen's must face each other, so do the two Kings.

5. 

   If you want to play a pro, learn how to name cells using a hierarchy of rows and columns. Each square on the board is attached with a letter and a corresponding number. When someone says "Statue to C3", they are using this system. The row and column system makes naming cells easier. advertisement

Method 2 of 3: Play chess

1. 

   The White Party goes first. The White side chooses whatever troops they want to move to launch the first attack, also known as the opening. The White side moves one piece, then the Black side moves one piece. Kick-off is one of the most important parts of a game. There is no "right" opening - because everyone has their own way and you will have your own way. However, there are some points to keep in mind as follows:
   • Do not attack when opening. When playing, you just need to bring the pieces to their most useful positions. You need to place them in beneficial positions and safe.
   • Normally, you should only spend 1 to 2 moves with pawns. After that, focus on other stronger units - Statue, Knight, Queen, and Rook. The "Deployment" stage (sending pieces to critical squares, for example the center area) is not considered complete if all of the above pieces have not been moved.
   • A lot of your starting moves depend on the opponent - you have to feel the game for yourself. So, observe and guess what the opponent's intentions are. Chess is a discipline that focuses on predicting situations and predicting risks more than any other game.

2. 

   Use the "en passant" rule. You can use this rule if you want. Many new players do not use this rule. But if you're curious to know how to make this game more "French" and more complicated, you can do the following:
   • If you remember, the Pawn can move 2 squares in its first move. Suppose you move your Pawn like that, then your Pawn comes to stand next to the opponent's Pawn in the same row. In the next country - and only in the next - the opponent has the right to capture your pawn through (en passant, literally French for "passing"). Normally, Pawns can only attack diagonally one square - but in this exception, it can both capture a Pawn from its side, and diagonally diagonally as usual.
   • It should be emphasized that this move can only be made immediately after a Pawn jumps 2 squares in the first step. If you pass this turn, you will lose your chance to catch Pawns across the street. Only pawns have this move, so you can not Catch Queen or Statue by catching across the street.

3. 

   Take turns. And the game continued like that! You and the opponent move in turn, trying to capture the King and capture each other's pieces. You will dominate if you can intimidate the opponent's King or King and force them to defend, but there are countless ways the player can win.
   • Pawns seem very entangled in hindrance, but don't "give Pawns" yet. When a Pawn reaches the bottom row of the opponent's side, it turns into another piece (except King)! Normally people choose to transform Queen, but you can transform Pawn into Rook, Knight or Bishop. You can completely reverse the game if you send a Pawn to the other side when the opponent is not looking.

4. 

   Always think ahead a move or two. What if you go to Ma there? Will that move leave the other troops unprotected for the opponent's next turn? Can you unleash the attack, or do you need to protect your King (or Queen)? What is the intention behind the opponent's stance? How will the game play in the next few countries?
   • This is not the kind of game where you can move the pieces around - they affect each other in one way or another. If you do not act in time, you can see that your Pawn stands in the way of the bishop's attack, Ma is defending the King, and Queen is about to be captured by the enemy's Rook. So calculate your next move and next move - as well as your opponent's move, if you can. To win, you need to be wise and have a strategic mind!
   • Always have a counter-move available if possible. You can yield your pawn to your opponent's bishop, but only if your Knight can capture it. Sometimes we have to contest on purpose.

5. 

   Know how to "cast into". There is a special move involving Rook and King pieces, the only move where you can move two pieces at once. In addition to the pawn's "crossing of the way", another special move in chess is castling. Castles are when Rook and King swap places - King is shielded and Rook is deployed and ready to join. Usually, castles were quite helpful.
   • You can cast only when:
     • Both the King and the Rook used for castles never move.
     • The King is not shown.
     • There are no other chess pieces between King and Xe.
     • The opponent's chess piece does not control the squares located between the position after the castle and the position before the castle.
   • You move both your Rook and your King at the same time. If cast into the King's wing, the King moves two spaces to the right and the Rook is placed next to the King (ie Rook moves two spaces to the left). If cast into the rear wing, the King moves two spaces to the left and the Rook is placed next to the King (ie Rook moves three spaces to the right).

6. 

   Win the game by checking out the opponent's King. That means you checkmate the opponent's King, but this time there is no way for the King to run. When this happens you can say "Checkmate!", But this is not necessary. At this time, the enemy overthrew their King, signaling defeat.
   • There may also be a "Stalemate" scenario - the game ends in a tie. The run out of water happens when your King is in a situation where there is no check but there is no safe box to go to.
   • There are several scenarios for a game to have a draw:
     • Air agreement.If two players agree that neither side can win or there is no way to win, they can agree to draw.
     • The game repeats itself. If a chess position the same is repeated at three different times in the game, with both sides being tied. For example, if the two sides keep moving the Ma piece back and forth over some of the boxes, the game will be a tie.
     • Let's tie the rule of 50 moves. If both players do not move a pawn or take a pawn for 50 consecutive turns, the game is declared a draw. This rule prevents the parties from extending the game and also prevents the parties from intentionally exhausting the other.
     • When there is not enough force. If both sides do not have enough strength to check out the opponent's King, the game is considered a tie. For example, a Knight and a King cannot check out the opponent's single King.
     • If all other pieces except the king have been captured and removed from the game. This is an example of the lack of power, because one King cannot checkmate himself or even checkmate the other King. The game will have a tie result.

Method 3 of 3: Apply tactics

1. 

   Make the most of the entire army. Don't constantly move Ma just because it can do multiple checkpoints. Mobilize all your troops! One of the biggest mistakes beginners make is to use only a few pieces. By doing this, all other pieces will be left behind, and the enemy will easily catch them. Keep your position flexible and know how to control and prevent the opponent.
   • In the start, you should only move a few Pawns first, then move on to other pieces. Troops in the first row easily "cross the river" to join the game, increasing your attack power.

2. 

   Central control. Center control is more beneficial than controlling the two sides, since more pieces can be moved in all directions. When mastering the center, your chess piece has the ability to move more flexibly than the edge or angle. For example, Ma only has two choose to move from corner, but have to eight choose to move from the center. Master the central area as quickly as possible.
   • It was also for this reason that many people pushed Pawns in the middle up to start the game. But be careful not to let the King get too loosened, because just one dangerous move of the Bishop or Queen can cause the King to be checkered out at the beginning of the battle!

3. 

   Don't give up unnecessarily. This is quite obvious, but many people still leave their troops, including the grandmasters! When forced to quit, use it for equal exchange. Never mindlessly discard a piece - every piece counts, be it Pawn or Queen. If you're curious, there is a scoring system in chess. The more valuable a chess piece is, the higher its score will be:
   • Good is 1 point
   • Code is 3 points
   • Statue is 3 points
   • Vehicle is 5 points
   • Queen is 9 points
     • King is invaluable because if you lose a King, you will lose.

4. 

   Protect your King. You should pay special attention to this. The only thing you need to do - if you don't like attacking - is right protect your King. Cast up to put the King in the corner, arrange troops to create a protective wall around the King, but still reserve a space to run in case the opponent successfully checkmate. You need to get the opponent to run away instead of attacking as fast as possible.
   • The king alone doesn't make a big impact, but it can protect itself. In the opening and in the game, the King almost always needs a few other pieces to protect from check. However, when the end is over, only a few pawns remain on the board and the others, the king then becomes an attacker and should be placed in the center of the board to control this area.

Advice

• Learn from your mistakes. As a beginner you will definitely make mistakes. Even the top grandmasters make mistakes that lead to defeat.
• One position was completely deployed when the King castled, the Statue and Mã had left their original positions and the two Rooks were connected.
• Always remember to place multiple high-level pieces in the center of the board. The more Pawns you leave, the better your king will be protected.
• Don't get frustrated if you lose a lot. Chess is a time-consuming subject, many chess masters have more than 10 years of experience playing chess!
• Learn how to set traps in chess so you can use traps or avoid traps if someone wants to trap you!
• Smart Good Move. Unlike other pieces, the Pawn cannot retreat to the square it just stands. They are largely static and can determine the game's gameplay.
• Don't find a quick way to checkmate. Most likely, you will be hit by the opponent's response when trying to check through quickly.
• No instruction is always right, and there is no concrete method for victory.
• The four center squares are the best position to place the pieces, as the pieces in this position can move more freely than they are next to them. Increasing your own range of movement is also limiting the opponent's range of movement.
• Sometimes castling is a damaging move that can leave you under check. But in other cases, castles help you checkmate your opponents! Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the position of the chessboard to make the best move.

Warning

• Quick chess is not for beginners. This is a game of chess with a high level of difficulty and competition, causing a lot of problems especially for beginners.
• Chess pieces can be very dangerous to young children if swallowed.
