any chess player here??come in gv some advice....i m a new beginner ....juz wanted to try out chess....can anyone guide me or gv me some advice in chess game....

a good game that will make u think.

Just try to play with a lot of different people. You'll learn a lot of different tactics and strategys. Plus, think before you make a move, example 'calculate' the surroundings like > what's gonna happen next if I move this piece. Btw, I am talking about chess not the chinese chess.

try chessmaster ... i forgot what was the latest expansion. It should be available in Lowyat Plaza

get some good opening books , those that explain why the moves were made.

And play a lot!

yes...i got chessmaster......

Chess is an easy game to pick up but very hard to master. When I was beginning to play chess, I joined the school chess club and played chess very time they had a meeting. When I became a little better, I read books on chess especially opening moves like Sicilian Defense, Ruy Lopez (aka Spanish Opening) and Queen's Gambit. Chess programs like ChessMaster also helps in building your chess skills.

i prefer chinese chess
it is more sudden

Flying Generals

What Chess are you talking about Chinese korean japanese europeans or indian?

The day I learned how to play chess, all basic things is the night before i represent my school to attend a competition in technology park malaysia

lol sounds idiot, I managed to win more than 50% of my games.(point will be given if you win)

but i won him be4 .... jus once time...

Same here, Chinese Chess has faster game-play.

International Chess is tough and long period ccos the pieces all next to each, very confusing . Always lose because didn't saw some piece.....

And How Bout Japanese Chess? anyone know how to play? wish to learn nbut no one around know how to play....

For chess players! you are invited to enter UTP Convofair Chess Tournament. please refer here:

at last
i found this kind of thread...

i also play chess
and i dunno why my shity skill can make me represent the school
and then get No.9 in Dearah Hulu Langat 'Lelaki Bawah 18 tahun' along 60 people
that is the first time i represent the school

at that time i didnt pay attention to many things
coz i always play defense (i always play black with fren )

after a year from that
only that i know that the 'center' of the chess board is very important
started to play Queen Gambit with many people, and like King Indian Defense most!!
if i play white, will try Queen Gambit, when play Black, will play King Indian Defense...

who is good in Hypermodem chess play in here??

err is good 4 u le...can get number 9...so jealous...my chess skill not so good...hmm....can teach me...haha...

i love checkers but no one likes it..anyone wanna play with me? add on MSN lor

i would like 2 learn new thing...can teach me...haha

LOL suddenly everyone wants to be a teacher. Anyway... if you are looking for kakis to play you can msg me.

Hypermodern openings are quite unorthodox and one usually requires lots of experience to actually benefit from it. Chess books do not usually recommend it, it's risky in some sense

A hypermodenist thinks differently from a classical player, their aim is to let the opponent set up their center so that they can attack it.

You can try to play chess in yahoo online games, its free.

i like chinese chess cannons and some more can block the horse. and that the king is limited to that small box.

but i play int'l chess more. i remember once, i played against my school's best chess player.

classmates, so we that single game was held when we had nothing to do.

i finished him off with less than 10 moves on my side. LOL. man i could remember how shock he was, champion got beaten by someone who doesn't play much. i guess he under-estimated me.

i now trying it on yahoo
and it really need experience
coz sometimes i will be late to capture enemy pawn
make them have strong defend on middle
and those pawn maybe can threatening my 'knight' or 'bishop' which is aim at middle
sometimes i feel that Frence Defense can counter hypermodem opening...
Chinese Chess Cannon??
the most famous and strongest opening is "dang tou pao"
but better dun play "dang tou pao" with me
coz i know how to play "po dang tou pao"

i always learn Defense coz i usually play Black/'Jiang' which is go later...
let oppenent go first is a good pratice

炮 la. the one that have to skip 1 piece to whack another.

you really think that im noob in chinese chess......

if you go first
will you go "dang tou pao"

In International Chess, there's a 3 move checkmate (opponent sengaja do that for fun, or really dunno how to play chess at all) and a 4 move checkmate (most beginners kena this trick). For strategies and stuff like that ... it's best if you slowly learn it yourself. Try Yahoo Chess, I think it helps a bit hehe

anyone wanna play chess...? long time didn't play already...huhu..used to play when at secondary school but now can't manage to find time and no opponent i guess..

u sound so intellectual...

Scholoar's Mate - the famous 4 move checkmate (i saw many people use it in yahoo chess...)
Fool's Mate - the fastest mate in chess (2 move mate)

from what i know, there is an annual Chess Tournament whereby yearly they have it in Midvalley ,Megamall.

There are booths selling Chess Accessories just that it is completely overpriced.

argh ... i used to be in the local chess scene. about 10 years ago , there were a few shops that had chess clocks for sale. I remember even the digital ones ... so darn nice.

Any picture to show?

Get it online if the sellers here charge cut throat prices.

wahlau 2 year old thread brought up again

where to find chess clock ?

anybody active in this thread anymoar?

I represent my school in MSSKL Chees 2 years in row ( form 4 and 5 )

What is 2nd most important piece in chees after Queen in your opinion ?

The King is the most important piece actually.
In most cases it would be the rook followed by the Bishop and the Knight.
Of course there are certain positions where it can be otherwise. But generally that's the rule.

tried the chesstempo site ... damn ... tried so hard, can reach 1700 nia
