How To Play Chess (And other Information) The Chess Club

1. The Setup Chess is a classic board game that was played long ago. Here is how you setup the board:

2. The Pieces Here are all the pieces: Rook Knight Bishop Queen King Pawn

3. The Pawn The pawn moves forward one space at a time. It captures pieces diagonally. The pawn may never move backwards. It can move two spaces on its first move if it wants to. The pawn is worth 1 point.

The Pawn (continued) Pawn promotion: En Passant: When a pawn reaches the back rank, it may turn into any piece except a king En Passant: A pawn may capture an opponent's pawn that is next to it, but it must follow these conditions: The opponent's pawn must have only moved once The opponent's pawn must have moved two spaces on Its first move The opponent's pawn must be captured immediately 1 2

4. The Rook The rook moves horizontally and vertically. It can move any number of spaces. The rook captures the same way it moves. The rook is worth 5 points.

5. The Knight The knight can move in any direction in an "L" shape, and it also captures the same way. The knight can jump over pieces. The knight always ends up on a different colored square than before. The knight is worth 3 points.

6. The Bishop The bishop can move diagonally in any direction. It can move any number of spaces. The bishop captures the same way it moves. The bishop is worth 3 points.

7. The Queen The queen is the most powerful piece in the game. It can go in any direction any number of spaces. It is sort of like a bishop and a rook combined. The queen is worth 9 points.

8. The King The king is the most important piece in the game. Without it, the game is lost. The king moves like the queen, except it can only move one space at a time.

The King (continued) Check: The king is in check when it is threatened by an opponent's piece The king must move out of check immediately There are 3 things the king can do to get out of check: Move the king out of check (yellow) Use a piece to block the attacking piece (blue) Capture the attacking piece (red)

The King (continued) Checkmate: When the king cannot get out of check, the game is lost. It is called "checkmate". Stalemate: When no legal move can be made, and the king is not in check, it is called "stalemate" and the game is drawn (tied).

9. Castling Castling is a move where the king and the rook switch around to either protect the king or open up the rook. To castle, you move the king two spaces to the right or left, and then move the rook to the other side of it. You can only castle under these conditions: The king must not be in check There may not be any pieces between the king and rook The king or rook cannot have moved yet

10. Algebraic Notation There are many forms of chess notation, but the one you'll be learning is algebraic notation. Algebraic notation is a way of finding the positon of pieces on the board The rows are called ranks, and the columns are called files. (Ranks = numbers, and files = letters.) There are also diagonals.

Algebraic Notation (continued) To find the position of a piece, see which rank and file it lies in. Remember that notation stays the same, no matter what angle your looking at it. Ex: The bishop is at _________ d5

Algebraic Notation (continued) To notate a move, write the algebraic piece name, and then its final position following it. The algebraic piece name are: Pawn = None Knight = "N" Bishop = "B" Queen = "Q" King = "K" Ex: You would write _____ as the move. nf5

Algebraic Notation (continued) If two of the same piece can move to the same square, you must specify which piece you moved. If the two pieces are on the same rank, put which file the piece is on. Ex: You would write __________ Likewise, if two pieces are on the same file, you would put which rank the piece is on. ndf5

Where can the pawn at e2 move? To e3 or e4

Where can the knight move? To h3, e2 or f3

Where can the black bishop go without getting captured? To b3 and a2

Where can the king go? a1, a2, c1, c2, and b2

Where can the king move to? No where. The king is in checkmate.

Where can the white rook safely move to? d2, g3, and g7 Right? No. It is d2,g3, and g7, AND a2.

Can this king castle? No, the king has moved.

Tournaments Starting next time, we will have tournaments You do not have to join a tournament; Free Play is always an option. Once you are out of the single elimination tournament, you can only Free play until another tournament starts If you are absent while you're in a tournament, it counts as a loss. Do NOT help players in a tournament during a game. There is a prize for the winner of the tournament (TBD)
