  • matt have u ever read silmans endgame book

  • @fatkidonpogo1 Yes I have, it's pretty good. I personally didn't learn anything that I didn't know before but I like how it is divided into rating classes and it has some exercises at the end of chapters that are challenging and well worth working out. I would recommend it as a good practical endgame book for class players.

  • @GreenCastleBlock nice btw whats your rateing

  • OMG OMG OMG NEW VIDEO BY MATT!

  • Nice post.

  • Great vid Castle!

  • Great video, thank you

  • no offence, but i'd rather have annotated games from you than all this! great presentation, but these endgame principles are the kind of stuff you should have books about, and it's much more personal and interesting for me when you present your games.

  • Welcome back GCB!

  • I'm currently playing one endgame in which this might come useful. Thanks!
