- rtpg 11y agoSerious question: Does en passant happen often? I've never seen it happen in the wild (i.e. in games I play), but I just play casually with people.
- dllthomas 11y agoI've definitely seen it, and I have never played a ton of chess.
- dasil003 11y agoIt happens a lot more to people who don't know the rule.
- icelancer 11y agoMore common in blitz. Carlsen executes it in the 2013 world blitz championships I believe, and I've had it done to me and I've done it as well in 1m/2s games.
- elangelcentral 11y agoEven if it doesn't actually happen, it often impacts play, especially in the end game.
- Scarblac 11y agoIt's relevant in almost every game, if you include variations that you have to consider when deciding your move.
