A chess tournament is a series of chess games played competitively to determine a winning individual or team. Since the first international chess tournament in London, 1851, chess tournaments have become the standard form of chess competition among serious players.
Chess is a board game played by two players. Each player controls an army of 16 pieces - one white, one black. Starting with white, the players take turns moving one piece each turn. Each piece moves in a unique manner, and understanding how the pieces move is a must when learning how to play chess.
