To The Best Of My Knowledge

 Good Day, All!

                          I do not know how to start with this, but like all other posts, this thread is also linked with all other ones and the so-called absolute thing, which I am trying to attain. By the way, as a late starter with History, I smell a rat wherever the reason for the start of the war or even the end of a war, or even a war which never fought is read/ heard. Say, like Alexander avoiding the Indian Sub-continent.

                           Don't be a bettor! And a gambler definitely works differently, as in Kenny Rogers' song, The Gambler.

 Good Day, All!

                           I was never good at chess, nor was I fascinated by it. I started playing the game at around the age of 16 or 17. One neighbour of mine used to beat me, or make me resign, in say, a few moves. And I got a game guide written by a Russian Player, which explained how to counter-trap my neighbour, clearly. The next day tried it and it worked nicely, and my neighbour threw the board and the pieces away and never came back to play. After that, I, too, never played much. And I lost that book also, which I miss badly even now, even though I am not really interested in Chess. 

                                   So, coming back to the topic, as I have already said in my earlier posts, I am more interested in the postulates or pre-postulates than the laws of science or say the rules of the game. From the naming of the pieces to their freedom of movement and unique aberrations like En Passant and Castling are quite intricate. Chess chessboard is like a war zone, more attached to human society than any other game or sport, where humans take part directly. Players may give priority to protect their Kings and beat the other King using the protecting/ attacking system provided. But to me, the most important aspect is the pawn promotion, where a simple pawn can transform into something so prominent, except for the King or the pawn itself, and it is quite understandable. And if the pawn were alive, it would be a miserable state for it.
