Chess is a game that has been enjoyed for centuries by millions of people all around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you think of a board game, it would be no surprise that chess would be one of the first ones to pop into your head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s one of those games where you have to really think about your moves and to play effectively, you have to plan your moves out ahead of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You know what they say \u201cplan 3 steps ahead\u201d is an unwritten rule within the chess community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to get really good at chess and win<\/a> every time, you need to do a few things in order to make that a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If that\u2019s what you want to do, then you\u2019ve come to the right place! Read on to find out all you need to know on how to win chess<\/a> every time you play!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn To Castle And Castle Early<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not everyone knows about Castling, especially newer chess players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you can learn and master Castling though, you\u2019ll put yourself in a much better position to win, especially if you use it strategically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t know what Castling is, it\u2019s basically a special rule that allows your king to move two spaces to the right or left, while the rook simultaneously moves<\/a> to the opposite side of the king.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you do learn how to Castle, you can start to use it to win games. It\u2019s important that you Castle earlier rather than later in order for it to be effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Castling is used to protect your king and move<\/a> it further away from the center of the board, which will force your opponent to go on the offensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can make a lot of their pieces very vulnerable. Castling early gives you a better chance of winning the overall game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understand Each Individual Piece<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To really get yourself in a position where you\u2019re going to win every time, you have to really understand each individual piece and its value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each piece has a different rank and it\u2019s important for you to study these ranks and know them by heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The queen has a rank of 9, the rook has a rank of 5, the bishop and knight have a rank of 3 and the pawn has a rank of 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The king is the most valuable piece on the entire board. If your opponent captures your king, it\u2019s game over and you\u2019ll lose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knowing each individual piece\u2019s rank and level of importance will ensure your strategies will make you win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make Your Opening Moves Good<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Having the best opening moves usually sets you up for success almost straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you perfect your opening moves, you increase your chances of winning dramatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re playing competitively, you need to be aware that your opponents will always be ensuring that their opening moves work to their advantage, so you need to be hyperaware that you don\u2019t get trapped in their strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Counter your opponent as quickly as you can and use an even better opening move than they do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most popular opening move strategies you can use is called the Sicillian Defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to learn how you can incorporate it into your games, look into this technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn The Right Moves<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Learn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Learning the right moves goes hand in hand with learning about each individual piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You need to know all the moves you can do and have available to you like the back of your hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each individual piece has its own set of rules you need to know. Knights can only move<\/a> in an L-shape and bishops can only move diagonally for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you know exactly how each piece moves with confidence, you increase your chances of winning even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to be successful at anything, you have to understand and master the tools that come with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Control The Center Squares<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another thing you can do to ensure you win every time is to control the center squares of the board. Specifically, the four center squares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you have control of the center of the board, you have more control and flexibility to attack from anywhere else on the board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll be in control of the game and your opponent won’t have much option to do much of anything on their end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make use of flanks by having your queens, knights and rooks running on each side of the board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have the center surrounded by these flanks, it will make it harder for your opponent to keep hold of their pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also make the middle more supported by slowly moving all your pieces towards the center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By having all your pieces in close proximity to each other, you have support if you\u2019re attacked at any point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have A Great Plan<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Moreso than anything else, you need to ensure you have a great plan and strategy when you want to be successful in your games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can play randomly, but it isn\u2019t recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you go into a game with no plan, you\u2019re more likely to fail and even if you do win, it would be down to pure luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not a strategy that has a good long term success rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you have to change strategies during play, it\u2019s in your best interest to have a plan from the start of the game to ensure success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In order to win chess every time you play, you mainly need to practise, as much and as often as you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The more you play, the more you can trial and error different strategies and methods and you can see what works best for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a plan and mastering your knowledge of each piece are the best things you can do to ensure you have the right plans and strategies in place to win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you play more, you\u2019ll naturally get better and then you\u2019ll win more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
