Question

Chess is a two-player game. One player uses white pieces and the other uses black pieces. Each player has one piece called the king. The players take turns moving their pieces. If a player lands on a piece, he or she takes it. The game ends when someone loses his/her king.

Good chess players take time to think about what will happen next. But you don’t always have lots of time to think when playing chess. A type of chess is called blitz chess. In blitz chess, each player gets ten minutes for the whole game. Your clock runs during your turn. You hit the time clock after your move. The hit stops your clock. It also starts the other player’s clock. If you run out of time, you lose.
