Point values


Queen = 9 points

Rook = 5 points (The value of a rook increases when the endame begins.)

Knight = 3 points (The knight is considered more valuable than a bishop in a closed game.)

Biship = 3 points (The bishop is considered more valuable in an open game and when you have the pair.)

Pawn = 1 point (Pawns are more valuable when they become a duo or two in a row. They also gain value in the endgame when their chances of promotion become greater.)
