On FICS, finger player Haley for a list of web sites about suicide chess then examine a few games by top players. "hbest S" will list the currently active strong players, also the inactive strong players may have interesting games in their journals(nalba,pminear,Joost) Then start playing :) specific opens: never play d3, d4, or e4 as your first move, these 3 are proven to be forced losses. As you might guess from that, the openning tactics in suicide chess are very sharp, and openning traps are plentiful. 1. e3 is probably the strongest openning move, and certainly the most common. 1. b3 and 1. g3 are also common. There are several suicide playing programs as listed in amn's post, for windows I would suggest Suicide Wizard, for unix/linux I suggest OliThink. Both are available for free, and both can beat me. Have fun, angrim(angrim on FICS)
