Chess Openings Learn proper chess opening moves by replaying hundreds of games in which a particular opening is used. To become really good, you should become an expert in a few opening systems. Your superior knowledge will give you a slight advantage in a game of chess when you know the opening system better than your opponent. This often makes the difference between winning and losing as the opponent drifts slowly, but surely, into a bad position.

Learn Chess Strategies When you play a game of chess you should understand the plan and the ideas that are hidden in the position. There are many general concepts and plans to be learned which can be applied in your games later on. Study standard plans and positional chess ideas to be able to use them. In chess when you play without a plan you are going to lose. Your pieces are going aimlessly here and there and are not working together harmoniously like a family to achieve a common goal. Often the pawn structure can show you where you should play, at the kingside or at the queenside. However, there are many chess strategies you should learn to become a good player. And it takes time too. Read more about chess strategies Chess Tactics Tactics is most vital. You are just like a blind duck running around in circles. To win material helps to win a game as having more material than your opponent is often decisive. Learn to spot surprising tactical moves that win a pawn or a piece. After you won material trade off as many pieces as possible to simplify the position and go into the endgame. It is much easier to win the endgame when you are up in material. Before you learn to play the game in a more positional way, you should try to develop your tactical abilities. Learn to see combinations first.

2 Chapter 2 : Chess Articles > For Beginners - blog.quintoapp.com How To Play Chess Tactics Traps And Tips For Beginners Play chess online niktonet, chess tactics (1 1) online chess and chess programs here at gk, i've often seen people complaining about some other players using. To train, I played with other chess players in my team and my teacher pit me up against this fifth grader whom she said was really good so that I can learn from him. In that game, I played very normal moves, bringing out my knight and bishop, while he brought his bishop and queen out. I had no idea what he was about to do but I made the fatal mistake of ignoring his threat and I got Scholar-mated. The game ended in four moves. Now, what I would like to show you are seven of the sneakiest traps and tricks in chess that I learned and I find really cool. Although, I would advise not to actually use these as often especially in actual tournaments against strong players because they are quite aware of these but it would be good to know them so that you can avoid being trapped. Furthermore, knowing these, you can have the upper hand because when one usually seeks to trap someone but it is defended against, he would usually end up with a much worse position than his opponent. You can try most of these out on unknowing victims, mostly beginners or when you are playing blitz or bullet games but again, experienced chess players already know these and would usually not fall into them unless they make pre-moves online and you can unknowingly mate them quickly. Chess players who have a good grasp of positional play and chess principles would not be fooled or easily trapped. Knowing these would also help you to watch out for them and show your opponents that you will not be caught by cheap tricks. Do not worry if you have fallen for these tricks because I have and many others have too. These are just the baby steps of chess and in every mistake that you make, you will be able to pick up lessons and learn from these to improve your skills. The first one is the Patzer trick. Nonetheless, I fell for this trick when I was playing chess with a friend in high school because I never really had a grasp of chess knowledge yet so I was just simply stunned and flabbergasted that the game had ended all too quickly. Of course, now that I have come to a better understanding of chess, I have learned how to counteract this trick. As you have seen in some of the lines that are shown above, there is a good way to defend against this trick by simply defending your pawns while developing your pieces. This move also causes the attack to cease so I have since considered this attack to be somehow diluted in its effectiveness unless Black cooperates well enough for it to be executed. Legal Trap Now, we are moving on to some complicated stuff with bold sacrifices that lead to beautiful combinations. The Legal Trap is somewhat a miniature version of a superb attacking combination since it actually uses the concept of a double attack and the concept of a decoy. You will be amazed by this trap and how certain high-valued pieces like the queen can become immaterial when looking for checkmate. Moreover, if you notice, both sides were making normal moves in the opening until Black moved his bishop to h5 wherein the trap was sprung. These are the subtleties that we need to be very careful to watch out for not only in this position but in every other position as well. I personally like this trap because it can be done in the Sicilian Defense, however, it does not always happen the way you would want to especially when your opponent is aware of it but it may lead to some interesting positions that are still quite double-edged in my perspective. This trap also highlights another theme in chess which is attacking the castled king on the h2 square so one must always be careful where he puts his king because the most dangerous place for your king to be is where you think he is safest at. The first illustration is the line in the Ruy Lopez. The other one is in the Sicilian Defense. Elephant Trap Most of the traps we have covered all stem out of the e4 openings since 1 e4 leads to very sharp and tactical positions with numerous variations. But there are also certain traps in the d4 openings and the Elephant Trap is one such trap where you will simply be surprised that by releasing the tension between the center pawns and a miscalculation, a crafty trick can be launched. In the end, the White king is out in the open and going to be running for his life. In the last position, White is completely devastated. Blackburne-Shilling Trap The Blackburne-Shilling Trap is one of the most impressive traps that I have seen so far since the result of this trap is a spectacular smothered mate. This also stems out of the Italian Opening but Page 2

3 instead of White delivering the blows, it is Black who confounds White and controls the game although this trap would work only if White cooperates. Traps, especially those in the opening, may be fun to execute because your opponents would be surprised and might want to give up easily but these traps do not work for everyone, especially not on experienced players who know quite a bit about chess than the ordinary person. Going for spectacular moves and daring to give up almost everything for the attack may be too risky at times because one misstep would usually cause the whole position of the attacker to collapse which is why many good tacticians do not neglect positional strategy because a good position would always lead to a static or permanent advantage. Tactics, though they are more dynamic, are only temporary depending on the short-term aspects of the position and may not always finish the job quickly. Rather, tactics should also just be a means to have a better position in the aftermath since not all tactics are decisive and some attacks may water down to nothing. In general, do not panic when your opponent starts to give up his material to attack your king because not all attacks are fully realized or what are called premature attacks. Simply analyze the position first and try to figure out what your opponent wants to do and if you see that there is no substance to his attack, then you can be at peace that you will be safe for the time being and you would not lose right then and there. Just develop your pieces, strengthen your pawn structure, and bring your king to safety instead of making hasty moves. Jeremiah Evangelista Jeremiah is a casual chess enthusiast.

Learn how to set up the board, study pieces, and use chess notation. Product Details. Chess Tips For Beginner 1. Your opponent wants you to move quickly. Take your time and find a strong move. Are you positive that your opponent can win the position on the board? If not, then play on! Practice playing with a clock. Most scholastic chess players think they know how to play with a clock. It is not uncommon for one or both players to completely forget about the game at hand when a clock is put on the match. Often, both players will make random looking moves while they are both fixated on the clock. Many of these games are completed within two minutes after a short series of horrible moves on both sides. Practising with a clock helps you to concentrate on the board position more than the seconds remaining. If you hit a piece, you must move or capture that piece if at all possible. Players will often pick up a piece while still considering their move. The correct process for making a move is simple: Never start c until you are finished with a 5. The same goes for the other parts. Try to move each piece just one time at the beginning of the game. Try not to move pawns other than your two centre pawns unless you have a good reason. Falling behind in development can easily cost the game. You can ignore it, but your opponent just threatened something. I know you are anxious to threaten something yourself, but he just moved and already threatened something. His threat may be more important than your threat. Never play a move without thinking. Without thinking, you reach for the queen. The queen will still be there in a couple of minutes. If this is a trap, you could lose the game by capturing the queen. Always be at least a little suspicious of a free queen. Make even trades when ahead. As pieces get traded, material advantages tend to increase in importance. Only making even trades should eventually lead to a situation where more material can be won. Finally, a pawn can be queened and checkmate given. A piece up endgame is better than an unsound attack. A king and queen can only checkmate a lone king if the king helps out. A king and rook can checkmate a lone king by driving it to the edge of the board and making a waiting move at the right time to force the opposing king to walk into a one move checkmate. It is essential to understand the acceptable method in these positions. Most winning positions can be won by queening a pawn and then performing the primary king and queen checkmate. No matter how new to chess you are, everyone who ever got good at chess was at your level at one point in time. You improve more in the games you lose than in the games you win. Keep a healthy attitude and eventual mastery of the game of chess can be yours. These are Top 10 chess tips for beginner that every player should learn. Chapter 4 : STOP LOSING!
