Chess Endgame Practice #1

[LanceChui]

Doesn't white win after getting checked by the black rook if the white king just advances toward the black rook? Once black saves his rook, white promotes the pawn easily?

[ChessByAlex]

@LanceChui No because black doesn't need to give checks one the king comes far enough from the pawn not to protect it and simply do the same thing

[irascibleculprit]

awesome

If I'd played this game I woulda moved the black king towards the white pawn and fallen into this trap.

[nblfyb]

I like these scenarios. I see how the black king in that square it's guarding it's surroundings from the rook. Cool stuff.

[colster71]

Excellent, thanks. To be honest, I don't often get to endgames like this, I've viewed similar vids about the Luciena position etc ( if that's the correct name ) but don't really get to use the info.

[ChessNetwork]

@colster71 It's important to know! =)

excellennnt, i took ur basic opening video for school project hahahahahaa i relly like it but it didnt work there :( ive showed some of my friends bout ur videos and theyre inspired just like me =P =D

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks. Didn't work there? What do you mean, took it for a school project?

[nottybanks7]

it didnt work to show my class mate as a project becoz there was no realplayer software, i bet if they all watched they wud luv chess ;ppppp

[ChessNetwork]

Oh ok I see.

[udarari]

what if k37 after the check at 3:07

[ChessNetwork]

I don't understand what k37 is. If you mean, what if a different king move in response to the check at 3:07, it doesn't matter. The next move is a8=Q.

[880330145789]

wow this is so cool... my first impression was a battle for both kings position.. but wow very nice ^^ 5 stars

[ChessNetwork]
