GIVE AWAY CHECKERS







Main

Give away checkers are played every where, with each rule.

Generally this game is not considered as a serious game, but in Russia where poddavki (give away for shashki) has competitions.

In France, the « Qui perd gagne » (that means who wins loses) is rarely played in clubs, but there is sometimes a give away championship during the classic France championship (just for fun).

In this game, programs are very strong, because there are very few good possibilities at each move. And I think that it is possible that this game may be « solved » by the computers (it means that the computer knows if it has won or lost after the first move of the game).

The rules

They are not specific. They are just the same as any other checkers game, but the winner is the one who cannot play anymore (no piece or blocked).

So, you can play give away in any sort of checkers.
