Very interesting! Now I can play good, as a 1600 player

[MiguelSD]

recently i was teaching chess to my friends at school and i placed the king on their respective color... when i discovered that i felt so dumb but since they are beginners they didn't care so much abt my error

A girl I dated once taught me the rule about queens on their own color with the mnemonic "the shoes must match the dress."

Thanks! nothing in the way of my glorious chess-career now

Yeah queens "CENTER MOST" light and dark squares

[johnwalker]

I remember the board orientation as "bottom right must be light."

Pieces by height surprised me… imagine if the knight or the rook was the tallest piece and get placed beside the king and queen 😱 Classical opening theories shot to bits

So to make things simpler
-white on right
-king on e file
-queens on the d

Also, remember when you set up the board, to put the black pieces on the 7th and 8th rank and the white ones on the 1st and 2nd

I heard about a guy that use physical chess pieces! lol, imagine the poor guy doing it every time he want to play somebody!😂

We always remembered which square the queen and king go on because we’d say “queen on color” because dark queen on dark square, light queen on light square

[CriminaIlyInsane]

Queens like the square the same color as them

[Hutino]

Also white goes on rows 1 and 2 and black goes on 7 and 8

Bro looks like if Michael and Trevor from GTA 5 had a child

[McLKeith]

White on the right is what I need to remember.

[Samsano-xzhw]

White is on the 1 and 2 line, black on 7 and 8

[gamerprox]
