Dear friends, I wish to begin this page of our site, with introduction of one of books of the well-known chess player - Bronshtejna D.I. What is chess? What is the chess game? What is the game in chess? Can seem, that it is a question about same. But it not so. Chess - the important part of human culture. Chess game - a small part of chess culture. Game in chess - the most widespread form of dialogue of chess players.
Therefore this site is calculated and on those who likes to reflect simply on chess, and on those whom to like to look for the original decision in a difficult position, and on those who has got used to play at leisure with the friend, but wishes to understand game of the partner better. Our problem - to help visitors of a site, to understand features of modern debuts, to develop skills quickly and correctly to estimate any position. But chess is not only ability to do хорощие courses. It also the benevolent relation to each other, understanding of that behind a board is played by two, instead of one; therefore it is necessary to concern with attention orchestra plans, not to weary its long expectation of a reciprocal course, to try to think up something interesting, live, in general - to receive mutual pleasure and advantage of game.
Extremely simple rules of movement of figures, strict sequence of courses allows each interested person to get quickly skill in game. Also it seems, what can be interesting in that simple movings of figures and pawns to restrict armies of the contender and for the sake of capture of the king to think out simple plans of intrusion by figures on enemy territory? However personal experience of each fan testifies that, once having learnt to play chess, anybody, with rare exception, does not throw chess and carries by interest to them through all life. Though it is quite possible, that everyone in own way tests liking to chess.
It is possible to think out the most different reasons for an explanation of the hobby for chess game, but there is one basic, and it anybody never names: chess varies together with us, therefore the person at different age perceives the same courses in a new fashion. Thus he admires the lucky finds and is afflicted at failures, absolutely forgetting, that each failure are achievements of its partner. How chess players but if it was not possible to receive to any of them at once by means of in advance prepared variant technically advantageous position tried and the party has ended after difficult struggle it only seems to the winner, that all went under its plan and the prize has appeared result of its more thin understanding of a position. And in essence, all often solves a case, unexpected coincidence of circumstances. But that that for a prize it is necessary to be able long time is conclusive, so it, sometimes during almost all party to balance in approximately equal position, waiting for an instant of good luck or a suitable case for carrying out of this or that known technique. Chess learns to endurance. In the course of game on a chessboard often there are such intricate positions, that in many cases equally difficultly both to choose the best course for itself, and to guess the partner answer. The charm of chess game just also consists as fiduciary even the nearest course!
