Italian Game

Italian Game

Italian Game is a strong, interesting, and easy to play and learn Opening for White. That is why it is very often recommended for beginners.

1.e4 e5 2Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4

Caro-Kann Defense

Caro-Kann Defense

Hi everyone. In this post, we are going to analyze and learn how to play the famous and strong Caro-Kann Defense. According to my database, this variation is the fourth most common move Black can reply against King’s Pawn (only Double King’s Pawn, Sicilian and French are more frequently played).

1.e4 c6

It is important to understand the first move Black plays 1. … c6. Ok, they want to fight for the center and play d5, that is clear, but you might be wondering why with c6? That move is not developing (unlike 1. … e6, which clears … Read more

Fried Liver Attack

Fried Liver Attack

 

If you are an aggressive player, who likes tactics, sacrifices, and sharp positions you are on the right site. In this post we are going to analyze a very interesting and tricky line for White pieces: the famous Fried Liver Attack (FLA), also called Fegatello Attack. Actually, this variation is so good for White, that even if you are a solid and strategical player, and your opponent gives you the possibility to get into this line, you should accept, because in the worst case the first player is getting a very big compensation (in some … Read more

French Defense

French Defense

French Defense is a solid, strong, and interesting defense against King’s Pawn. According to my databases, it is the third most popular line when White plays 1.e4 (only behind famous Sicilian and Double King’s Pawn).

In move 1, Black just plays e6, clearing the line to develop the dark squares, Bishop. Apparently they do not care too much about the center and space. However, in the second move, Black is going to play d5 no matter what White plays, making sure they also have a pawn in the center.

Scandinavian Defense

Scandinavian Defense

Would you like to play an aggressive and dynamic Defense against King’s Pawn? Do you want to get away from the super well-known ways of Ruy Lopez or Italian and play something a little more surprising and different with Black pieces? If the answer to those questions is “Yes”, then you should definitely read this post, where we'll be talking about Scandinavian Defense.

This time we are going to talk about Scandinavian Defense. It happens after the moves 1.e4 d5!

Black’s move is aggressively fighting for the center from the very beginning. Of course, this idea is not … Read more

Sicilian Defense Opening In Chess

The Sicilian Defense Opening In Chess

If you're looking for that type of exciting opening line, the Sicilian Defense Opening in chess may be perfect for you!

We all know that 1. e4 is one of the top moves we are taught as a beginner. We learn techniques, for example, to control the center, develop Nf3, Bc4, etc. When we teach beginners, we simulate Black doing the same; e5, Bc5, Nf6, etc… Doesn't that sound pretty boring as Black?

Finding a Black opening repertoire can be a daunting challenge. As White, your play is easier, as you get the first … Read more

Spanish Opening In Chess – Plans and Strategies

Ruy Lopez Opening – Plans and Strategies

The next opening we are going to learn about is the Spanish Opening in chess, also known as the Ruy Lopez. The Ruy Lopez name is named after 16th-century Spanish priest Ruy Lopez de Segura. The Spanish opening is one of the principled openings we teach to beginners, as the emphasis is on controlling the center, piece development, and early King safety. It's very similar to the Italian Opening, as the same principles are applied there.

The difference between the Italian and the Spanish is that the Bishop develops to c4 in … Read more

Chess Openings: The Petrov’s Defense

Petrov's Defense, Petroff's Defense or Russian Defense.

We have the Petrov's Defense on the board after the moves 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nf6. This defense has the reputation of being very passive, but this is a little relative, it depends on the variation. People say Sicilian (1. e4 c5) is a sharp Defense, however, if White plays Alapin (c3 in the second move), then it won’t be that sharp.

Above all, when you play Petrov's Defense, you will get some solid positions, without weaknesses and with a balanced game or in the worst case with a very small advantage … Read more

In chess, each piece has a specific and limited move, and cannot move beyond its restrictions. The knight`s move is unique in the sense that it is the only move that allows it to jump over other chess pieces.

While most chess pieces only move in a straight or diagonal line, the knight can jump directly to a square that is two squares forward and one square to the left or right (or vice versa), or to a square that is one square forward or backward and two squares to the left or right (or vice versa).

This jumping movement allows the knight to bypass other pieces on the board, which allows it to move to areas of the board that might be blocked by other pieces.

Therefore, the knight move is a very important strategic move in chess, and can be used to surprise opponents and create advantage in the game #Chess #HorseMovement #ChessStrategy."

Chess is one of the oldest games in the world and is believed to have originated in northern India around the 6th century. The earliest written records of chess date back to the 7th century, although the original form of the game was quite different from what we know today.

During the Middle Ages, chess spread throughout the Islamic world and became a popular game in Europe through Spain. By the 15th century, the game had evolved into a form closer to what we know today, with the emergence of modern pieces and the creation of new rules.

Since then, chess has been considered an intellectual game and a mental sport, and has been played by people of all ages and cultures all over the world. Chess is a game that requires skills such as strategy, long-term planning and concentration, so it is considered by many as a valuable tool for mental development.

In short, chess is an ancient and fascinating game that has evolved over the centuries and remains popular around the world today.
