The origins of the game of chess go back many centuries. Rules changed slightly
but Benjamin Franklin probably played it
the way we do now.

How does a "Class A" chess player think
differently than a beginner? One with a
U.S.C.F. (United States Chess Federation) rating of 1900, for example, knows that
a rook is worth five times the value of a
pawn; the bishop (like a knight), three
times. Also, the "Class A" player "looks
ahead," visualizing what can happen in
the future. But this forsight involves the
more-reasonable moves on both sides;
it often omits wishful thinking.
