I am the board 1 player for my school’s chess team and am looking for some chess software which will help me learn some more complicated openings. I would like a program which allows me to play against a computer, and also walks me through a large variety of different openings for both white and black. I would prefer free software, but if it is really good I would pay for it too.
Additionally, if anybody has additional suggestions on how to improve my game (besides reading opening books, they just don’t seem to help me much) please let me know in your answer.
I want to play chess online against other people for free, but there are no such websites available to me. Is this because of a patent law or something? And can I now create one, seeing a lack of supply!
Most of the grandmaster used P4K or e2-e4 opening. Why P4K or E2-E4 is the most used opening in chess? I am always thinking about it when playing chess.
Today we look at a new chess opening. We take a look at the Bird’s Opening which is the 6th most popular opening, although rarely played in comparison. White tries to focus on the center by controlling the dark squares while black tries to focus on the light squares. For analysis on other openings check out the website at www.thechesswebsite.com
In chess, I have realized that I feel very confident playing with the opening:
1.c3
2.g3
3.h3
and usually, I continue by fianchettoing my bishop and putting my king’s knight on f3 (4.Bg2,5.Nf3).
I also end up with a very good pawn structure.So, any critiques(other than the fact that I am weakening my queen’s knight)? What are the main weaknesses of this opening?
I have beaten chess titans easy and, the chess program on macs which is like 3 times harder. What is the best chess player that I can get on my computer???
We look at a very aggressive chess defense for black today in the Benoni Defense. Against the very common opening from white of d4 a player must have multiple things that he can throw at white to give him a good chance to win. In this video we take a look at the Modern Benoni which is one of the more sound variations of the Benoni Defense and some of the key concepts you should look at while you are playing both as white and as black.
Please do not tell me that I need to play in ranked tournaments, take some classes, or list a bunch of sites. :/ An explanation to why it’s so good would be appreciated.
