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!

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??

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