In this free preview excerpt from my latest chess DVD for beginners entitled ¨Winning Chess Endgames for Beginners¨ – we´re going to take a look at a few critical positions in Knight and Pawn endgames. Specifically, we will examine targeted examples to increase our understanding of essential concepts such as zugzwang, blockading, and deflection (The deflection technique is especially important in Knight and Pawn endgames!). Below you will find the starting positions for the three exercises from the video – I recommend you try to solve these positions before watching the video and then compare your responses.

Thanks however I don't understand why you don't explain the idea at 11:13 of black instead of moving King to e6; to sac his pawn to f6 to if White takes now with the knight
obviously notbecause the black king is at f5 so it would snap that g5 pawn. And if white takes with the pawn -defended by the knight on h7 then we have a runner with black playing g5 and drawing the game… So I didn't use computers so what am I missing.. thanks puzzled amateurvery instructive video, is there a chance of bishop and pawn endgames coming? XD
nice stuff – best way to train simple endgame techniques is IMO on the chesstempo. com server – I have often seen basics like Lucena positions spoiled into a draw by quite strong players – but 200 times played against a server and you win it against anybody
