Sorry for the book I am posting :)
There weren't any instructions given for spiritual or magickal training for the student in the original Enochian source work. It was basically just a listing of the tools, names and prayers used.
Another factor in the incomprehension of the Enochian system stems from the fact that Dee and Kelley did not write the most easily to understand notes. They were not writing a book, they were taking notes from the skrying sessions in their personal diary. On top of all of the confusion, there are no records of Dee or Kelley ever working the system. Whether Dee and Kelley ever worked Enochian is still up for debate. The angels told them not to work Enochian, and there aren't any diary records of works being done except for one healing talisman that the angels instructed them how to make.

As I stated previously, what I read stated Crowley had his own way of using the Enochian materials that wasn't exactly like the Golden Dawn. I have only been interested in the angelic connection. I don't feel magick has to be complicated. I have my own way and I don't feel one has to overtly be involved with what is labeled to be magickal types of workings. I am into keep it simple :)

There is a lot in wikipedia about the game and sources for the information given:
Enochian Chess was created by William Wynn Westcott, one of the three founders of the Golden Dawn, but the rules of the game were probably never completed by him. The game was finished by S. L. MacGregor Mathers, who put its rules into final form. The game was four-handed because each set of pieces corresponded to one of the four classical elements and their several watchtowers, and the game was used for divination as well as competition. The four sets of pieces were variously colored, and identified with Egyptian deities or "god-forms". The main identifications of the pieces were:
Osiris, represented by the king;
Isis, the queen;
Horus, the knight;
Aroueris, the bishop; and
Nephthys, the rook or castle.
The chess board itself was also varicolored, and divided into four sub-boards in which each of one of the four elemental colors predominated. The rules of the game were partially derived from shatranj and other historical forms of chess; the queen is played like a fers, with a two square diagonal leaping move. The four players would form pairs of two, with each player having a partner. MacGregor Mathers, who finalised the game's rules, was known to play with an invisible partner he claimed was as spirit. Joseph Hone, biographer of William Butler Yeats, claimed, "Mathers would shade his eyes with his hands and gaze at the empty chair at the opposite corner of the board before moving his partner's piece."
The game, while complex, was in actual use; Georgie Yeats, wife of poet William Butler Yeats, relates actually playing the game as a part of her occult training in Golden Dawn circles. Her husband took part in some of these games, as did MacGregor Mathers. On the other hand, the full set of the rules is not well presented in the Golden Dawn material handed down; Donald Tyson has observed that the game has "numerous weird little quirks" that "make it impossible to actually play in any satisfactory manner".
So it does appear they used it for divination in some way.
