Two notes (I've just started to watch this series...): When castling, the king cannot be in check, nor can it put itself in check while castling. Just saying. Other than that, I like it! I'm going to enjoy this series! :D 

Thx my first step to my dream of becoming a chess master

Excellent, great video.

and so on and so forth.... : )

Daniel, one rule you did not make clear is that in the "en passant" situation, the passed pawn must take the passing pawn on the very next move, or lose the opportunity forever.

Thanks :)  I'm counting on your vids to build a solid foundation in chess.  Please don't let me down! lol.  Great vid.

you have a good narrating (or whatever) way lol it makes new comers excited to know about chess xD

My first step on chess. Thanks.

Amazing tutorial on how to start playing chess!

@Fleuries:

If you capture a pawn using en passant, it counts as a move, just as it would if you captured the pawn without en passant. You don't get an extra turn for using en passant.

This is my favorite video, I have come back to watch it a few times, when I can't remember how pawns move: they Can't move like Kings, and I like the part where the narrator says "it is not checkers." And then he tells the King to "take the checker"...just a little while later. I am also thinking, that maybe at the end they should say whether or not it counts as a turn if you take the other's pawn en passant. Or do you get to take their pawn and get a turn too? That sounds like it would be unfair, on the surface anyway, not knowing for sure.

Very well done, thank you.

very nice one !!

great, thanks a lot. 

Thanks, a very good review for me!

thx a lot.

Hi sarveshd, you cannot move your king into a check for sure. Also, it's not allowed to move a piece of your own which blocks a chess. For example, if black's king is on e8 with a Pawn on d7 and a white bishop on b5, you can't move that pawn because that move would open the diagonal for the white bishop attacking the king. The pawn is 'pinned' to its position in this situation.

You can move your king onto a square where it might be attacked in the next move, though, if that's your question.

excellent but one question is the king allowed to make a move irresepective of getting a check or not from any of the opponent's objects (like pawns, rook, bishop,etc.)

That was very good.
