There is an additional rule to the game regarding "Kutakasia" This is a situation which crops up occasionally during the second stage. I have left this out of this video, but it is my intention to make another short video about the "Kutakasia" rule and also about game notation.

Although there are many people and sites I could credit as sources for this tutorial, I have avoided doing this as any errors that occur in this video are entirely my own.
