Hi there and thanks.

00:02.550 --> 00:06.740
I want to introduce you to the touch move role when your.

00:08.520 --> 00:10.380
Fingers your hands and then the board.

00:10.400 --> 00:19.180
Be careful if you accidentally touched, say this --, then you have to move it.

00:19.230 --> 00:21.930
It's a touch move rule generally that applies.

00:21.930 --> 00:23.300
You have to actually move that --.

00:23.640 --> 00:30.900
That's not the ideal form of usually you want to play the -- heads F or default to try and control

00:31.110 --> 00:34.620
the so-called four key central squares.

00:36.450 --> 00:41.360
So you want to be careful with your hands, especially in a professional chess game.

00:41.370 --> 00:42.540
There's the touch move rule.

00:43.020 --> 00:52.840
Famously, Kasparov accidentally touch the piece against Judit Polgar, but he got away with it.

00:52.980 --> 00:54.910
There's a big controversy about that.

00:55.290 --> 00:58.530
But anyway, you don't want to do that, especially as you get more and more experience.

00:58.530 --> 00:59.490
You should know better.

00:59.490 --> 01:01.410
You should be very, very careful with your hands.

01:02.520 --> 01:08.070
So to touch, move, row, be very, very careful with your hands are the only exception is if your

01:08.070 --> 01:09.510
king would be in Czech.

01:10.110 --> 01:15.810
So say say, for example, F4, F5.

01:17.780 --> 01:24.260
Mitzy Free and the queen goes here and you accidentally, accidentally touch this ball, your king will

01:24.260 --> 01:25.150
be in check.

01:25.820 --> 01:28.070
So it's an illegal move, right?

01:28.090 --> 01:30.980
So but in general, yeah.

01:30.980 --> 01:32.170
Trying to avoid this.

01:32.210 --> 01:32.450
Yeah.

01:32.450 --> 01:35.980
Be very, very careful of your hands has the touch overall.

01:37.220 --> 01:38.840
OK, so bear that in mind.

01:38.840 --> 01:39.680
Safety points.

01:41.630 --> 01:42.800
Be careful with your hands.

01:43.700 --> 01:46.130
The touch, move, roll starts.

01:46.130 --> 01:51.490
People kind of trying out moves to see what they look like.

01:51.500 --> 01:52.550
That's that's naughty.

01:52.550 --> 01:53.510
It's a form of cheating.

01:53.930 --> 01:57.440
And in that regard, by the way, don't write notes in your score sheet.

01:57.440 --> 01:58.540
That's also illegal.

01:58.550 --> 02:00.290
You can't put notes on your score sheet.

02:01.820 --> 02:08.420
And nowadays, when you record moves on your score sheet, you actually need to make the move first

02:08.750 --> 02:12.870
and then write the move after on your score.

02:13.130 --> 02:20.210
It used to be the other way round, so that used to be quite useful as she as a safety check, people

02:20.210 --> 02:24.650
would, you know, write the move down and then have them sort of look round before actually moving.

02:24.650 --> 02:29.990
It was a good safety check, but now you do actually need to make a move first, then write it down

02:30.140 --> 02:31.070
on the school sheet.

02:31.430 --> 02:36.080
But there's a touch move rule which has been around for ages.

02:36.680 --> 02:38.360
So don't mess around with your pieces.

02:39.020 --> 02:40.270
Don't fidget with your hands.

02:40.280 --> 02:42.200
Be careful, OK?

02:43.380 --> 02:43.670
Much.
