How to improve in chess?

Question

i know all about chess but i can't beat anyone

Answer 1

Hello --

What you need is practice and perhaps a bit of training.

I recommend several things:

(1)  Get a chess program for your computer and set it at the lowest strength possible ... it will still win but you will have a chance against it.  You can play it anytime and you can learn very fast.

(2)  Of all the chess books there is one that I recommend for beginners ... it is called "My System" by Aron Nimzovitch.  (Try to get it used ...it has never been out of print)  This book is not just about chess ... it is hmmm? Perhaps about philosophy of chess.

(3)  Find other people to play with ... it is important to learn from other players and I am sure there are players who will help you.

(4)   I hired a chess coach ... didn't cost too much and he helped me a lot.

Good luck on your adventure.

P.S.  You might not want to say, you know all about chess, until you are a rated Grand Master.

Just practice, i know sometimes its hard to do, (trust me, i'm the only one in my family that knows how to play chess.) find an online site you can play against the computer. i used to have one, but i lost it when my comp crashed

Answer 14

Play at every chance you get. I think i am good, but I know five or so people who will always beat me. I love to play them and I always try to take a different approach.

If you are loaded, Buy a smart chess board that claims on the back that it will teach you how to play chess. IT WORKS (a little) and provides instant opponent (Just add Mercury and Lead)
