Re:Links for beginners - 2007/06/11 20:42 The homepage of Chess Teaching has been mentioned before, but if you are looking for Chess Lessons the Chess Lessons Index may be a better entry point.

Re:Links for beginners - 2007/07/15 19:52 We had some technical problems today, but they have been solved by now.
All the chess lessons are accessible again.

About one lesson a week will be added.

Re:Links for beginners - 2007/07/24 03:05 Although probably mentioned in the websites listed above, it may be an idea to jot down key elements of chess.

Ill mention a few here:

Always aim to control the center by means of advancing central pawns or knights...

Develop all back row pieces as quickly as possible...

Never move the same piece during development (unless you are forced to by an attack)...

Castle early...

Never trade off valuable pieces for minor ones (it is good to stick to this rule until you have a clear understanding of the ideas used that involve breaking this rule)

Theres a few pointers from me, hope they help

Re:Links for beginners - 2007/11/29 13:57 I wouldn't call myself a beginner but I dont see the relevance of the center. I understand why I wouldn't want a knight on the edge of the board but I dont understand the whole concept of 'battling for the center' someone please explain

Re:Links for beginners - 2008/01/11 16:58 i understand what you mean jonny a very reasonable view.

If player A has complete control of the center, the he/she will able to mobilize their pieces in such a way that it can threatan a castled or uncastle king.

Also, having the center allows a better range of play as you have greater flexibility, you will often see advanced players moving their rooks to the 'd' and 'e' files to increase such pressure.

Cutting through an opposing players middle section of the board makes it very difficult to defend a castles king.
I am sure there are more reasons, it does depend on the an individuals style of play but what i said may dserve as basic and generic advice

Hope this helps
