Did you know that one endgame comes up in more than 15% of all chess games?
Some endgames occur very frequently, and those are the ones we have to know best. I have listed 10 most common and most important chess endgames and tried to explain their basic ideas and principles.
Practice against Noctie here:
The statistical data was taken from Karsten Müller and Frank Lamprecht’s excellent “Fundamental Chess Endings” (Gambit Publications Ltd., 2001, 11-12)
10 most common endgames are (in descending order):
1. rook vs rook endgames 8.45%
2. rook & bishop vs rook & knight endgames 6.76
3. two rooks vs two rooks endgames 3.45
4. rook & bishop vs rook & bishop (s.c.) endgames 3.37
5. bishop vs knight endgames 3.29
6. rook & knight vs rook & knight endgames 3.09
7. king & pawns vs king & pawns endgames 2.87
8. rook & bishop vs rook & bishop (o.c.) endgames 1.92
9. queen vs queen endgames 1.87
10. rook & bishop vs rook endgames 1.77
Rook and minor piece vs rook and minor piece endgames come up in more than 15% of all chess games played! They’ve been divided into separate endgames above to make things clearer.
