Review of rules for chess::When playing Chess, when can only one pawn move up 3 ...









               Hail               Magnus               Carlsen,               the               highest               rated               chess               player               in               history.
               During               the               2012               London               Chess               Classic,               Carlsen               surpassed               Garry               Kasparov's               record               rating               of               2851,               established               in               1999.

Carlsen,               22,               has               soared               to               these               new               heights               two               years               after               becoming               the               youngest               player               ever               to               be               ranked               number               one               in               the               world.
               "It's               pretty               cool.

It's               probably               the               biggest               achievement               so               far               in               my               career,"               Carlsen               told               chessvibes.com               in               an               interview               after               finishing               the               game               that               assured               his               record               high               rating.
               Now               that               the               Norwegian               superstar               has               raised               the               bar               even               higher               into               the               stratosphere,               how               does               the               chess               landscape               look?

Is               Carlsen               the               best               classical               chess               player               ever,               in               addition               to               being               the               highest               rated?
               Kasparov               and               Bobby               Fischer               are               the               only               two               players               other               than               Carlsen               who               have               a               fairly               valid               claim               on               being               the               best               player               in               history.

Certainly               Kasparov               was               the               most               universal               player               ever,               equipped               with               encyclopedic               opening               knowledge,               middle               game               prowess,               tremendous               attacking               and               tactical               ability,               subtle               and               top-shelf               endgame               technique,               and               fantastic               defensive               resources.

Kasparov               ruled               chess               as               world               champion               from               1985-2000.

As               great               as               he               is,               Carlsen               has               not               yet               become               world               champion,               at               least               not               at               classical               chess               time               controls.

He               has               been               the               world               blitz               champion.

Carlsen               did               not               compete               in               the               last               World               Chess               Championship               cycle               to               determine               a               challenger               to               the               throne               held               by               Vishy               Anand               of               India.

Carlsen's               reason               for               not               competing               was               he               didn't               agree               with               all               the               rules               for               the               cycle.

His               run               at               destiny               would               just               have               to               wait.
               It               is               hard               to               contest               the               argument               that               Fischer               was               farther               ahead               of               his               contemporaries               than               anyone               in               history.

Demonstrating               total               dominance               over               his               competition,               Fischer's               rush               to               the               world               title               in               the               early               1970s               included               a               19-game               winning               streak               and               back-to-back               6-0               whitewashings               of               quality               opponents               during               the               Candidates               Matches.

Fischer,               however,               refused               to               defend               his               title               and               became               a               recluse,               and               Kasparov               was               dominant               over               a               much               longer               period.
               The               highest               rating               Fischer               ever               attained               was               2785.

Since               then               there               have               been               ten               players               who               have               achieved               ratings               higher               than               Fischer's               best,               including               six               who               have               gone               beyond               2800,               according               to               chessvibes.com.

Chess               rating               inflation               is               almost               inevitable               over               time,               and               this               is               the               reason               so               many               players               have               moved               past               Fischer               in               the               ratings.

Consensus               opinion               says               Fischer,               in               his               prime,               would               have               dispatched               most               of               these               players.

Fischer               had               a               genius               and               fighting               spirit               most               of               these               other               players               lacked.

There               is               no               way               to               adjust               Fischer's               rating               upward               to               combat               this               inflation.

Therefore               the               only               thing               to               go               by               is               the               quality               of               games.

And               by               this               measure               Fischer               and               Kasparov               take               a               back               seat               to               no               one.
               Called               "The               Mozart               of               Chess,"               Carlsen               has               certainly               put               his               name               into               the               conversation               of               who               is               the               best               player               of               all               time.

Like               many               of               the               greatest               players,               Carlsen,               Fischer               and               Kasparov               were               all               chess               prodigies               who               learned               the               moves               at               a               very               young               age.

At               almost               every               age               level               as               they               matured,               they               stood               out               among               their               contemporaries               as               being               a               cut               above.

For               example,               Fischer               won               the               chess               "Game               of               the               Century"               when               he               was               just               13               years               old.

Kasparov               and               his               rival               Anatoly               Karpov               also               showed               more               consistency               in               tournament               play               than               Carlsen               has               exhibited               so               far.

Carlsen               sometimes               finishes               down               in               the               pack,               whereas               Kasparov               and               Karpov               almost               always               won               or               finished               second               in               the               tournaments               they               entered.
               Then               there               is               the               question               of               the               chess               computer.

While               he               reigned               as               World               Chess               Champion,               Kasparov               defeated               the               Deep               Blue               chess               computer               in               1996.

However,               he               lost               the               rematch               in               1997,               and               since               that               time               chess               computers               have               gotten               stronger               and               faster.

Today's               players               consult               the               best               computer               chess               software               to               track               what               their               opponents               play               and               to               prepare               for               their               games               and               matches.

No               matter               how               high               Carlsen's               rating               is,               the               best               computers               are               stronger               and               Carlsen's               record               has               to               be               qualified               as               the               highest               human               rating.
               To               be               called               the               best               ever,               Carlsen               will               have               to               at               least               gain               the               classical               chess               championship               title               currently               held               by               Anand,               and               he               will               have               to               maintain               his               form               for               a               few               more               years.

    Review of chess game rules::How Many Pieces in a Game of Chess







    Review of chess game rules::How Many Pieces in a Game of Chess








    I               know               we               have               all               seen               strong               players               crush               someone               with               only               two               pieces               out               in               the               opening,               and               we               all               want               to               do               that               every               game.

    Of               course,               this               is               impractical,               and               the               only               reason               a               chess               master               will               attempt               this               is               if               their               opponent               blunders               greatly               in               the               opening.

    Quite               to               the               contrary,               any               decent               chess               master               will               tell               you               that               developing               your               pieces               is               of               utmost               importance.

    This               should               be               done               before               launching               any               kind               of               attack               in               chess               unless,               as               I               said,               there               is               an               actual               mate               in               the               air.
                   The               classic               advice               has               been               to               develop               the               knights               before               the               bishops,               and               there               is               a               logical               reason               for               this.

    In               most               classical               chess               openings,               the               knights               are               able               to               put               more               pressure               on               the               center               from               their               natural               squares.
                   However,               if               the               position               calls               for               it,               get               those               bishops               out!

    You               see,               while               there               are               hard               and               fast               rules               to               chess,               how               you               open               is               purely               up               to               you,               and               is               sometimes               a               matter               of               taste.

    If               there               is               an               enemy               knight               you               wish               to               pin               to               a               queen               or               king               with               your               bishop,               do               so.

    Just               make               sure               there               are               no               sacrifices               in               the               air,               because               sometimes               those               pins               can               be               broken               by               checks.
                   Development               is               important               in               chess,               because               in               order               to               attack               or               defend               correctly,               the               whole               army               needs               to               act               in               unison.

    After               all,               it               is               very               difficult               to               defend               a               mating               attack               with               just               one               piece,               right?

    It               is               equally               hard               to               launch               a               successful               attack               with               just               one               or               two               pieces               in               the               opening,               especially               if               your               adversary               knows               the               game               well.
                   Try               and               get               your               bishops               outside               the               pawn               chain.

    That               is,               to               squares               where               they               aren't               staring               at               their               own               pawns               or               pieces.

    In               most               cases,               it               is               better               to               trade               a               bishop               off,               than               take               twenty               moves               or               more               to               break               it               out               of               a               mess               of               your               own               pawns               and               pieces.
                   While               developing               the               knights               is               classically               best               on               the               f               and               c               file,               many               times               it               is               necessary               to               develop               them               to               the               d               or               e               file,               especially               for               black,               who               theoretically               is               defending               from               move               one.

    Nbd7               is               a               book               line               in               many               black               openings,               and               can               actually               be               quite               sharp.

    Play               the               position.
                   Castling               is               part               of               chess               development,               and               should               rarely               be               overlooked               as               an               important               move.

    If               the               queens               are               traded               off               early,               there               is               much               less               need               for               castling,               and               sometimes               it               is               even               better               to               keep               the               king               near               the               center,               preparing               for               the               endgame.
                   In               short,               please               make               a               habit               of               developing               all               your               chess               pieces               before               launching               an               attack.

    Get               them               out               there               where               they               are               effective,               make               plans               and               follow               through               with               them,               and               castle!

    Remember,               just               because               there               may               be               14               book               moves               in               the               chess               opening               you               play,               does               not               mean               you               have               to               play               all               of               them.

    Look               around,               watch               for               blunders,               and               if               you               can               end               the               chess               game               early,               by               all               means               do               so.
