Body: <p>I know this sounds ridiculous but I want to learn the hand movement for recapturing in chess. It seems like a good fast way to recapture especially in blitz. Here is an example if you don't know what I'm talking about (the way they quickly recapture/capture a piece).</p>

  Practice makes perfect. I've seen several different ways on how to capture pieces. It's not really something that you learn, but more like something that goes automatically. So, just try it a few times at home (without thinking, so it goes automatically), and do what feels the most *natural*.
