Without a strong end game you won’t be good at chess. The strategy in the end game is somewhat different than that of other parts of the chess game and it’s important to know the themes that remain constant when entering the end game and which ideas change. This is the first lesson in a long series that will go over many of the most important concepts in a chess end game.
End Game Strategy and Tactics Lesson 1- Minor Pieces
Did Kevin die
Good video… I'll be looking forward to the next one in the series.
Thank you
thank for making video on endgame
thanks kevin! looking forward to the next part of this series 🙂
i generally tend to hate end games as it gets boring and frustrating 🙂 and end up making a critical mistake!
Thanks for the vid.
woot, endgame logic, and Kevin's charming method of explaining things to accompany it.
You can say that again
boring
i'm very good on opening:)but even i have slight advantage…i lose because i'm not good during endgame:(
I SUCK AT CHESS : (
2:13 It wouldn't matter what pieces you had, that is a draw
Thanks for the great tips… my game just increased just by hearing these basic principles….
Where are you from, cause that accent sounds cool?
I do not follow any of their advice as it is better to follow a strategy with a personal touch!
Chess is serious matter! AHAH
Hey Kevin, I don't mean to sound contradictory, but there are instances in which two Knights can be insurmountably powerful. As when they are adjacent eachother or protecting one another in enemy territory.
im not kevin, but of course! two nights in enemy territory protecting each other (especially in a tight position) are very powerful
powerful video
Thank you, was helpful
Hi Kevin- Your on-line lessons are wonderful! I am self-learning now with a computer so this is great ! You are a very good teacher- I have been doing well other than the ENDGAME. Yours was the first I could find that was engaging, not tedious. You have a new fan! Kristy
if you want to show a position were the knights are superior, why show a position were the knights cant move anywere?
at 3 43 why show a position were black can hold the posiion together with bishop to d5, i mean really is this a joke video??? white cant attack anything its a drawn position, are you kidding?? but anyway 35000 views without chess knowledge, man i should make youtube videos as well and im rich
you don't understand chess
well thats my name but how will white make progress if black has a bishop at d5 at 3 43?? he doesnt get in with his bishop, and he cant sacrifice it. If you tell me how white is winning i delete my post and admite im wrong, but yes besides that you are right i dont understand chess. Thats why i picked the name. Its too dificult for a simple minded person like me.
that being said, if i could recall all chess knowledge i have forgotten already, i would be probably at least a candidate master by now.
It depends on who plays first. If white plays first (as is usually the case if not stated, although it should be) white wins with bishop f3. If Black leads with bishop d5 and plays correctly is a draw.
thought black were to move lol
Your southern accent is killing me , good video though
Nice vid
Why didn't he play it out so we could see an exact way white could win in that position? Cause I don't see it?
Do you think it is better to set up your Pawn structures to get a temporary boost for the middle game, or to get a better endgame?
video is rubbish, the first position black is a pawn up, I thought it was goina be a deep analysis on how black would push the slight advantage, get a life!!!
