| Posted by persianelephant ability-tw.com 7/17/2002 20:22:54 | Message: A gambit is an opening tactic where one player sacrifices a pawn for a different kind of gain (example: rapid development, better position, etc.) Nobody knows who invented chess, but it said to have originated in Persia. In the 8th century chess has spread to China and in the 10th century to Europe. The rules have evolved a lot since then, and the game is completely different. Chess was invent around the 6th century. |
