Hi
I don't know the rules very well. I thought that when you put someone chess, the opponent is no longer able to make a rochade. In the game I am plying right now, this situation happened so I wonder how this can be. Maybe someone can explain me? Thank you!

3/ Whichever side you castle the King moves two sq ...[text shortened]... http://www.fide.com/component/handbook
