Chess.com computer

<p><p>Trying to improve still!! Been using the chess.com computer opponant, every time I play 1.e4 computer plays 1..kf6 is there something I'm missing here? Do you have to beat it for it to try a new opening or is there a setting I'm missing, incidently is a nice reply to 1.e4 but would like a different game each time any answers to this?????</p></p>

Why not play against real players in live chess?

!

I don't know what computer this is but Kf6 is an illegal first move :P I think you mean Alekhine's Defence, which is Nf6. N is used instead of K because of course, the king also starts with K and it is the more important piece :)

However, on a serious note, you really should try the live chess on here. This will help you to improve more than the computer opponent as you will be playing different people and will face many different openings.

Finally, if you want more help with chess - Please come along to one of the Leeds Chess Club nights, we meet every Wednesday evening. I will be there tomorrow from 7pm and I don't have a match, would be nice to see you and I could give you a little tuition, too. There are 15 of us playing matches tomorrow and it's my week off, would be good to have someone to play :)

Take care mate.

I let my 5-year-old nephew play the chess.com computer on the silly level the other day, and I swear the computer started playing the bongcloud.  It brought the king out early and started moving it around the board. 

King K, Knight N, I think I was asleep so night and day, left and right, up and down got a bit confused

Anyhow computer continues to bring out the pesky Knight, off to find a book on the bongcloud I think this will help

For anyone who missed it http://www.caissasmonastery.org/2010/04/01/winning-with-the-bongcloud/

Theres also big treads on chess.com re bongcloud.

Enjoy!

You really cannot play 2.Ke2 and be taken seriously!!!
