  Introduction
   
  This book was written to provide new chess players with basic
  information that will prepare them to play chess in any venue, whether
  it’s a tournament or club or even j ust casual games with friends.
   
  Many new chess players are surprised to discover when they go to a
  tournament or a chess club that there’s more to chess than j ust moving
  the pieces. One of the more important of these aspects is chess-
  playing etiquette. Although seldom covered in other books, specific
  etiquette should be followed so you can both enj oy the game and gain
  the respect of your fellow players. In the pages that follow, I cover
  etiquette and other essential components of the game, such as setting
  up the board, writing down your moves, tournament play, studying to
  improve your game and many other topics that will enhance your
  enj oyment.
   
  Chess is a great game that has many benefits in everyday life
