Best Answer

At the beginning of a Chess game, each side (or color) has one queen. However, each pawn that makes it to the opposite end of the board may be 'promoted' to a queen. If every pawn promotes to a queen, then a player could have a maximum of 9 queens (the one they started with plus the eight promoted pawns). This is highly unlikely since it is very difficult for a pawn to safely make it to the other end of the board. Plus one or two queens is all that a player should need to put his or her opponent in checkmate!

What is the maximum number of queen a player can have in a game by one side?

I assume you mean the game of chess. The player starts out with one queen; the only way to get additional queens is to promote pawns - convert pawns into queens by taking them to the far end of the board (row 8 for white, row 1 for black). Since there are eight pawns that can be converted to queens, that makes a theoretical maximum of 9 queens, assuming standard chess rules are followed.

At the beginning of a game of chess are there are more of any piece on the board than any other?

There are more pawns on the board than any other since each player has 8 pawns. However, sometimes pawns are not referred to as "pieces." They are simply pawns while all the other combatants including the rooks, knights, bishops, king and queen are called pieces. In that regard, there is no "piece" that is more numerous than any other. There are 2 rooks, 2 knights and 2 bishops, so they are all equal in number.
