Playing Chess
As A CHESSPLAYER, you lose games from time to time—like all chessplayers.
Naturally you want to improve your play. Is there something special or unique about your problem? I don't think so. Only a few of us can become masters; yet the rest of us can achieve respectable playing strength with a reasonable amount of application.
The first big step—an enormous step—in improving our play is to become aware of the things we do wrong, the bad moves we make. Many of us could never reach that point without personal lessons because we could not previously find in books the kind of material that would enable us to spot our own weaknesses.
That is a pity, for while chess is a lot of fun, win or lose, it's more fun when you win! In my contacts with thousands of chessplayers for over twenty years, I have often watched them grope and drift and become discouraged in their efforts to improve their game.
It was from these observations that the notion of concentrating on the Eight Bad Moves took shape. Again and again I have seen, in the course of teaching and playing and discussing, that most players commit certain typical errors.
I started to think about these errors and how to describe them in such a way that the reader would exclaim, "At last! That's just why my games go wrong! If only I'd realized this
sooner!"
This site has been "on my mind" for several years. What held me back somewhat in writing it, was the influence of the teachers and psychologists who have been insisting that a "negative" approach is all wrong. I finally concluded that my emphasis on the Eight Bad Moves of Chess was not really negative at all.
Before a player can begin to improve, he must clear away the faults that have been spoiling his games and depriving him of well-earned victories.

Getting Pinned:
The best advice about getting pinned is: Don't!
Oh, I know, "easier said than done". But, there are strategies that prevent or at least make it much less likely.
Pins occur more frequently on the chessboard than any other type of attack. Yet, strangely enough, pins are rarely defined or explained. A pin is an attack on a piece which screens another piece from attack. A piece that is pinned is tied down.
In the above diagram, Black's Queen pins White's Rook.
The Queen attacks the Rook, which in turn screens the White King from attack.
The Rook is pinned (tied down to its present square) because a move of the Rook would expose the White King to attack by the Black Queen. (As you know, the laws of chess forbid your making any move that exposes your King to attack by a hostile piece.)
To emphasize the helplessness of White's pinned Rook, let us suppose that it is Black's move, and that he plays . . . N—B7ch forking White's King and Queen.
One's first thought is to reply RxN, in order to save the menaced Queen. But the pinned Rook is helpless; it cannot move. White, in check, must move his King, losing his Queen by ... NxR.
The pathetic helplessness of White's Rook in the previous diagram is typical of pins where the screened piece is the King.
