Learn to Play Chess - Skewer | Kids Academy If you are learning how to play chess you must know about skewer. A skewer is like a pin in reverse. When you pin a piece, you attack a piece and a more valuable piece is revealed behind the piece that you attacked. It can be turned around which means that you can attack more valuable piece, this piece runs away revealing a less powerful piece behind it which means that we can capture it. This would be called a skewer. Pieces that are moving in a straight line and are long range pieces can do skewers which means only queens, rooks and bishops are the only three pieces that can make a skewer move. So, whenever you see these pieces in the sesame diagonal you can go for a skewer move. It can instantly get you more points and can actually become the winning move for you. Keep an eye on all the pieces and you can make the most intelligent skewer move in chess.
