Chess Tip
Having a hard time beating an opponent? LIkely, you may have to do a piece-for-piece play(i.e., queen for queen, rook for rook, etc.) until you get a more advantageous position, dependent upon how the board is set up. And for chess newbies, I have a piece of advice that may be old, but that 's tried and true: just like an athlete going for a championship, the same is true of going for GM status or becoming a good chess player: Train, train, train!
