Chess

There is no limit. However, it depends on time constraints, mutual agreement, and common courtesy to acknowledge one's own skill limits. If a mate cannot be reached, then, by mutual agreement, a draw can be declared, but, only if both payers are satisfied with the turn of events. In the case of a governed match, it would be up to the referee, or governing body, to declare a draw.

Vishwanathan won this chess title by beating Vladimir Kramnik.

The queen is the most powerful piece in chess whereas the most important chess piece would be the king .

The Bishops .

Standard Shogi could possibly be played infinitely without the repetition rule, but usually it can go up to 400 moves or higher. When we reach situations like Impasse, we usually agree on a rule which determines who will win the game, for example, bringing your king to the opponent's throne or determining which side has more material.

37 players in England have the title of grand master and 57 have the international master title this is correct data from FIDE (as per putting this post up) some are inactive players but once you have the title you never lose it.

The move referred to here is called castling, and the rook and king don't actually "trade places" as was suggested in the question. Castling is a maneuver that increases protection for the king and allows for development of the rook. Let's look at castling as see what really happens. Imagine a chess board with only the two rooks and the king in place on it. They're on their starting squares. To castle, the king is moved two squares toward the rook on the side on which the player wishes to castle. The rook on that side, the side toward which the king was moved, is now placed on the other or far side of the king. It's as if the rook "jumped over" the king to get to the other side and stand adjacent to the king. It works the same for either side, and the king is moved those two spaces toward the rook with which it is going to castle, and the rook "jumps" the king and ends up alongside it. Castling can be done to either side using this mechanism. But there are restrictions to castling. The first rule of castling is that neither the king or rook can have moved for castling to be legal. Also, all intervening pieces on the side to which a player wishes to castle must be out of the way; the space between the king and rook must be clear of all obstructions. Third, if the king is in check, castling is prohibited. It is not a legal move to castle to get out of check. Lastly, the king cannot across a square that is under attack. Certainly the king cannot move into check, but recall that the mechanism of castling begins with moving the king two squares toward the rook with which castling is desired. If that square that the king would move across is under attack by an opponent, castling is prohibited.

There are eight rows and eight columns .

One can't really answer this question. There are several good moves when your opponent first move is e2-e4, e.g. e7-e5 or e7-r6 or c7-c5. None of them will bring you victory by themselves you still have to play better than your opponent.

Ok, here goes. There are 64 1x1 squares on a standard checkerboard. There are 204 total squares on an eight-by-eight checkerboard. 64 1x1 squares, 49 2x2 squares, 36 3x3 squares, 25 4x4 squares , 16 5x5 squares, 9 6x6 squares , 4 7x7 squares, 1 8x8 square, Hope this helps! Forthfriend.

Usually not much at all (even most grandmaster typically make under $70,000/year as professionals) until you get to be in the top ten, where you get the sponsors and invitations to the top invite-only chess tournaments. At that point you could be be making millions.

Yes, the king can capture its attacker as long as the the attacking piece is adjacent to the king and if the king can move to the space where the attacker is without putting himself in check from some other piece of the opponent.

Castling involves both rook and King moving to their respective squares whether it be a King-side castle or queen-side castle . When castling , the king moves two squares towards the rook , and the rook moves over the king to the next square , i.e. , black's king on e8 and rook on a8 move to : king c8, rook d8 (Long Castling) , white's king on e1 and rook on h1 move to : king g1, rook f1 (Short castling) ~ look to the related link below for additional information regarding castling .

Chess is commonly believed to have originated in India during the Gupta empire,[15][16][17][18] where its early form in the 6th century was known as caturaṅga, which translates as "four divisions [of the military]" - infantry, cavalry, elephants, and chariotry, represented by the pieces that would evolve into the modern pawn, knight, bishop, and rook, respectively. Both the Persians and Arabs attribute the game of chess to the Indians.[19] In Sassanid Persia around 600 the name became shatranj and the rules were developed further. Shatranj was taken up by the Muslim world after the Islamic conquest of Persia, with the pieces largely retaining their Persian names. In Spanish "shatranj" was rendered as ajedrez, in Portuguese as xadrez, and in Greek as zatrikion, but in the rest of Europe it was replaced by versions of the Persian shāh ("king"), which was familiar as an exclamation and became our words "check and chess".[20] Murray theorized that this change happened from Muslim traders coming to European seaports with ornamental chess kings as curios before they brought the game of chess.[18] Knights Templar playing chess, Libro de los juegos, 1283. The game reached Western Europe and Russia by at least three routes, the earliest being in the 9th century. By the year 1000 it had spread throughout Europe.[21] Introduced into the Iberian Peninsula by the Moors in the 10th century, it was described in a famous 13th-century manuscript covering shatranj, backgammon, and dice named the Libro de los juegos. Another theory contends that chess arose from the game xiangqi (Chinese Chess) or one of its predecessors.[22]

There are 400 different positions that can result after the first move (each player making a move). After just two moves, there are some 72,084 positions possible. Over 9 million possibilities appear at the end of three moves, and over 288 billion after four moves. In the fourth move, there are (very) roughly 288 billion minus 9 million, or 287 billion, 991 million possible positions that can result in the fourth move. That's 287,991,000,000 possible positions (approximately) that can be achieved during the fourth move.

Each player begins a game with 16 pieces: 8 pawns, 2 rooks, 2 knights, 2 bishops, 1 queen and 1 king.

Another name for a chess game might include "immortal game" or even Scholar's Mate.

On her color. On e1 for white and e8 for black.

when you say corner chess piece, do u mean the piece tht starts in the four corners of the chess board, if so then that is called a rook.

If your asking how the Knight moves, it moves three squares in one move, two squares horizontally and one square vertically, or two squares vertically and one square horizontilly. Forwards or backwards.

If you or your opponent cannot make any legal move and the king is NOT in check, it is called stalemate and the game is a draw.
