COMPLETE SUMMARY:
1.Chess Board
Chess board contains 64 squares in which 32 are light squares and 32 are dark squares.
We have 8 rows and 8 columns in chess board. In chess language these columns are called as Files and these rows are called as Ranks which Moving forward,
2.Arrangement of Chess Pieces
The Rook worths 5 points and are placed at the corner of the chess board, Which means each player gets 2 rooks in a match.
After rooks there comes Knights which is of worth 3 point. Knights are placed just after the Rook.
After knights we place the 3rd piece that is the Bishop which is also of 3 points. Next comes Queen, which is of worth 9 points. If you get white pieces then you need to place your Queen in the light square. Similarly Black queen is placed in the dark square.
And in the remaining square of the 1st row, from their sides will be placed by the most important piece that is King. King worths no point.
Each player gets 8 pawns and they are placed in the 2nd row from their sides. That is 2nd rank for the white pieces and 7th rank for black pieces.
3.Movement of Chess Pieces
Rook moves in + shape. While moving on its path , rook can capture the 1st opponent’s piece in its path
After Rook we will see Bishop, If Rook moves in + shapes, Bishop moves in X shape .that is diagonally.
Queen is the combination of Bishop and Rook which means queen can move in + shape as well as X shape.
King can move only to 1 square in a move, in any direction.
Knight moves in L shape
Pawn moves only in one direction, that is towards opponent side. If a pawn if moving for the very first time, It can move 1 square or 2 square. After it 1st move, a pawn can be pushed to only one square in a move.
En passant : when your pawn is in the 5th row from side, and opponent pushes the adjacent pawn to 2 squares , you can still capture that pawn only in the next move.
4.What is Check and Checkmate
Whenever King is in the path of opponent’s pieces it’s called check.
We can escape from check in 3 different ways. 1st one is by moving the king from the path of the piece that is giving check. 2nd one is by blocking the path between the king and the piece. 3rd one is by capturing the checking piece.
Checkmate : Whenever there is a check and we cannot escape from that checkmate, this condition is called checkmate.
5.What is Draw Match
Draw match is a situation where neither player wins. But how this situation forms. There are 5 types of draw matches.
1.Draw match by stalemate.
2.Draw by insufficient material
3.Draw by 3 fold repetition
