I thought his explanations are awesome. Its the music that's a touch loud.
This is a free video, so I will take it any day. THANKS. The music is great also. But his voice is done softly so... in turn (so to speak) it makes that "epic" mucic SO LOUD. BOOM

this endgame made me lose the tourney in my grade school if i could only turn back time. i could have forced a draw and play for the national :(
-
@Lazzlewins it's a draw

@Lazzlewins Pretty certain you cannot advance the pawn if it is on the A or H file. As in the video when the black king goes one direction, white's king goes the opposite. well on the A or H file, it's impossible to go the opposite. So make sure you don't end up in that situation with a pawn stuck on A or H.
-
if the pawn is at the side (A or H file) is it still possible to force the win? I ended up in the situtation and i might have played it wrong but i couldnt see a way to win

thx for uploading very usefull vid!!!!
what if at 3:25 instead of black moving up to C7 he moves parallel to the king on B5 then do you advance he pawn?

Yeah just advance the pawn. black should then move to b6. white can push king to d6. then black king to b7. white can this push pawn up to c5. Then the critical move. black should move to c8 and white can move king to c6 with the same spot i go over in video. Then depending on whether black moves to b8 or d8 white can move king to the other 7th rank and push pawn up with no problem.
Hope this helps. Good question.

Tictac hopefully you are not basing the winning position off the chess engine from my site, its not a powerful engine. Please use a powerful engine and you will see the game is drawn.
