THE GIUOCO PIANO
(or Italian Opening)
White is building an attack against Black's KB2(f7).
Black leaves the "Épine Dorsale", his King's Bishop imitating White so as to control Q5(d4) and target KB7(f2). The two bishop moves signal the Giuoco Piano (Italian for "Quiet Game"). White now plans for P-Q4 and has many choices. B-Alt.
     White   Black
 1.  P-K4    P-K4
 2.  Kt-KB3  Kt-QB3
 3.  B-B4    B-B4   Transp.from Bish.O.

When castling always touch the king first
Under FIDE laws of chess, if a player deliberately touches a rook and then his king, he is not allowed to castle on that side on that move but must still move the rook if legally possible.
