Do you want to have a good rest and switch your mind from endless work or study to something more enjoyable? Evenings are made for playing chess with a computer - it’s hard to find a more interesting and more beneficial activity for the mind! The main thing is that, contrary to popular belief, playing chess with a computer is almost as cool as playing with a live opponent. Of course, it is impossible to break the rules in this case, and you won’t be able to hit your opponent over the head with the queen in case of loss - this is a minus...

If you want to become the strongest in this intellectual sport, you will of course need live opponents with non-standard logic and the ability to generate creative solutions. But you can’t go into a tournament against real champions unprepared: online chess will allow you to train as much as you need! And once you’ve trained yourself to play chess online, you can safely challenge even Kasparov himself to a tournament. There is no doubt: as in any sport, regular training will allow you to prevail in any situation!

A little history

It’s not for nothing that we immediately began to compare the board game with a military strategy. It is now difficult for us to imagine that a knight, rook or bishop (which, by the way, does not look like an elephant at all) could have anything to do with military operations. Where are the tanks, you ask? Where is the aviation? Okay, if we decided to make do with infantry, let there be infantry... But why then do the pawns look more like girls in ball gowns rather than stern infantrymen?

It is not difficult to answer all these questions if we remember that the history of the game chess originates in Ancient India: scientists agree that the game appeared no later than the 6th century AD. Since at that time humanity was already a fairly civilized and organized society, the battles bore little resemblance to primitive fights. It was not the personal endurance and strength of warriors that began to come to the fore in the art of war, but the ability of their commander to build tactics and plan a battle strategy.

It was somewhat expensive to practice various tactical schemes on living people even in those days, and therefore the ancient rulers decided to come up with something that would allow them to simulate the course of a battle. And they came up with chess - not so much a game as a training ground for commanders, a tool for planning and practicing possible tactical techniques. Those on the board were precisely the troops that the then generals had at their disposal at that time. And there was a place for the commanders themselves: in the role of the king, who is of little use as an ordinary warrior, but without whom the battle is lost instantly.

Of course, there were no traces of any tanks in those days - that’s why we still play with rooks (chariots), bishops (in fact, bishops are bishops) and cavalry. Well, and the infantry - where would we be without it? Pawns have the shortest move, but there are always many of them, and they are the ones who start the battle. Well, do you still have doubts that the game of chess perfectly reflects the picture of military operations?

Chess players of all countries, unite!

Of course, time cannot but take its toll on traditional entertainment. And, although chess has not only existed for a long time, but has also been popular for many centuries, the rules of this game more or less settled down only in the 19th century. The game finally acquired the status of not only “universal” but also “international” with the creation of the FIDE organization. The history and purpose of this community are typical for any such association in the sports world. With the growing popularity of some kind of entertainment, the number of different interpretations of the rules increases, which make it almost impossible to hold more or less large-scale competitions.

To turn a board game into a real sport, it is necessary to create a unified system of rules, a mechanism for assigning sports titles and competition regulations. It is these issues that FIDE has been addressing since 1924 - that is, for almost a century. Of course, no one is stopping you from creating your own set of rules - but who will you play with? And having studied the generally accepted rules approved by FIDE, you can play chess with the computer, with the Chinese or with the world champion - and with everyone according to the same rules! In this regard, playing chess is a universal language of communication, because no matter where you go, you can always play a game or two with any local resident, without worrying at all about the language barrier. You simply don't need to speak: your moves will say everything for you!

Computer chess player

It so happens that not all intellectual sports are considered equally valuable for mental development. For some reason, an avid gambler is more likely to be associated in society with some asocial element, while a chess player is an honored and respected person.

I distinguish this sport among all board games precisely because in it, like nowhere else, the importance of demonstrating all aspects of human thinking is great. By reading books and studying the games played by other people, a novice chess player gains a theoretical knowledge base, which can even be partially transferred to practice: we all know such a concept as, for example, a “classical opening” - that this is not an attempt to replace the work of one’s own imagination with reproduction of acquired combinations from memory?

However, any truly talented chess player will beat a beginner in no time, who will reproduce entire scenarios read from books. The fact is that all standard schemes have long been known to the whole world, and therefore are easily predictable. By reproducing even the most ingenious sequences of actions on the board, the player exposes himself to attack, because the enemy knows all his moves several moves ahead.

A complex combination of simulated compositions and original finds - this is where true mastery lies. It’s not without reason that beating a real champion is more than an easy task for a computer, which by definition is only capable of choosing the most successful options from the hundreds of thousands of chess games that were once played and loaded into its memory.

However, this does not mean that there is no point in playing online if)
