When a player takes the hand off of the piece is the move final?
In most chess tournaments, the answer is 'yes.' In non-tournament games players can do whatever they want. Also in chess tournaments, if a player touches his own piece, he must move that piece (if possible). That's why, when castling, you must move the king two spaces first -- to signal that you are castling. Otherwise, when you touch the rook, that is the piece you must move and thus you are prevented from castling (at least on the side of the rook you touched). Furthermore, if a player touches an opponent's piece, he must take that piece (if possible). These are, of course, very formal rules. Usually, when a couple of 'woodpushers' sit down for a game, they can even 'take back' moves.
