a fundamental rule in chess that requires a player, who touches one of their own pieces, to move that piece if it has a legal move available
What is the "touch-move rule"?
The touch-move rule in chess states that if a player touches one of their pieces during their turn, they must move that piece, if it is legally possible. If the player touches an opponent's piece, they must capture it, if it is allowed. This rule helps to ensure fairness and prevents players from making accidental or misleading moves. The touch-move rule applies in both formal and casual games, and in tournament play, failing to follow it can result in penalties or losing the game.
Example
In chess, if you touch a piece, you must move it, according to the touch-move rule.
She touched the pawn by accident, so the touch-move rule forced her to move it even though she had a better plan.
The referee reminded the player about the touch-move rule after he touched the rook but hesitated to move it.
