You can promote a Pawn to any other piece, except the King, that you choose.

You do not have to have lost the piece you promote the Pawn to. It's therefore theoretically possible for a player to have nine Queens (the original, plus eight promoted pawns).

However, you may not give control of it to your opponent; it remains your piece.

When the pawn gets to the other side of the board, it can get promoted into a bigger piece, such as a quenn or a knight.

The pawn , upon promotion , will stay in the square in which the promotion took place until the next move where the promotion , usually a Queen , can then move .
