The only pieces available on
the first move are the
Knights.  In order to develop
other pieces as well, it is
necessary to move pawns first,
and such pawn moves will be
best as give an outlet to as
many pieces as possible. For
quick development is of the
utmost importance, and he who
succeeds first in placing all
his pieces, from their
initial awkward positions, to
such places as give them
command of the greatest
possible number of squares,
has the better chance of
concentrating a superior force
on some important point.

What suggested game collections/other readings do you have to demonstrate the practical aspects of these basic principles?  How do you suggest players study these works to best absorb the ideas and improve their play?

The only piece able

to be mated is the

king.  One must keep

this in mind during

a game of chess. 

Learn to attack the

king when it is the

appropriate plan.

This is of the utmost

importance.  To win,

mating the king should

be your goal.  He who

succeeds first in mating

the enemy king has the

better chance of

having won the game.

your king is very important

don't let your enemy mate him

you are mated when your king has no where

to move to

and cannot escape at this point you lose so don't let it happen

it is

very bad and try to protect him by "castling" if no pieces

are in between your king and rook and they havn't moved

you may swap them  and offer great protection for lon

g

time.

While playing chess it is very important the opening game if you loose even a pawn it difficult to conruct the game so don't loose a pawn even , it is very important.My experience that one should open the game with Queen Pawn or King pawn two squares and support should be given to protect them. If you loose even one pawn you should get ur oppnent's also. one to one.Always don't attack but construct your game, keep counter attack and protect your King by doing castling so that ur king is safe and well protected. You must take care of him. He is very very important if you loose him, you lost the game.So according my experience either you open the game by king pawn 2squares or Queen pawn 2squares and support should be given.And after this castle pawns both should move up 1 square. Try to construct your game frist and then attack.One should remember if you loost you must get one.Keep the ratio equel or if you get one big extra piece go on taking opponient's piece so that in the end you have two and ur opponent one and you can win the game.Don't resign unnecessarily try till last may be you will be able in making stalemate.So fight do not surrender unnecessarily.Play with confidence always,take time  & think properly and then play.

Thanks
