what I have always had a delema whether it is good to get your queen out into play early or let it wait intil all of your piecies are in play. franly I have no idea wich is better when i could see both having there own perks.

Generally you want to keep it back until your pieces are developed. If you bring it out early, your opponent can attack it while developing his own pieces at the same time. You have to spend your time moving your queen to keep her safe. Then your opponent has all his pieces out, and you're lucky if you haven't had to completely retreat your queen. That gives him a much stronger position going into the middle of the game.

There are times when it is appropriate, but when you are starting out you should try and keep her back while you get your knights and bishops out.

Queen is geared towards defense at the start of the game.

Queens usually stay put, I think, until they are needed. That's also my mentality - let's me sleep longer

 Je pense que la reine est tres bien sauf et tu besoin utilise la reine quand c'est vachement neccesaire, pas demain sa.

 I think that the queen is better safe and you need to use the queen only when it's completely necessary, not before that.

That doesn't seem like a very good opening...

thats an odd oppening. it very riskey to because it causes your defence to fall tenfoldUndecided

Avatar of thetman

realy. I find that in the beginning of the game I like to keep my queen close to the rest of my pieces to provide a good defence. but your the one with all the trophies so obiosly its stupidto argue with youTongue out

I trade mine off for theirs as soon as i can, as long as it doesnt hinder my defence to do so.

I usually develop knights and bishops, don't move your queen early, because its more vulnerable to be attacked.

Another good reason to keep the queen back is that any threat to the queen is from lower valued pieces such as knights and bishops, which would not be advantageous in exchange. That is something I learned from Mastering Chess Openings (Watson).

Personally, I find the queen more powerful when the board is less crowded. In the opening, with various pawn structures and developed mid-level pieces, the queen can get hemmed in...

 wow. I guess if that is a stratigic advantage depending n the game that might not be a bad ideaSmile

I think the beginner of this post may be confusing the wayward "queen" with the wayward "son".

es una verguenza tener que jugar con una persona que no sepa llevar su juego edecuadamente como es devido.no se porque hay jugadores de a gedres que le gusta prolongar el juego cuando lo tiene perdido sin tener que resignarse antes de proseguir estas son gente que les gusta perder el tiempo en ves de resignar viendo el juego perdido.mientratanto si estan ganando juegan lo mas ligero posible para recuperal sus puntos.yo cuando estoy perdiendo y veo que no tengo solucion renuncio para no perder tiempo

GANE CON GRACIAS Y PIERDA CON DIGNIDAD
