    A grand master blundered a whole rook against me 40 years ago in a blitz game. Thrilled at the prospect of such a huge scalp I wildly exchanged pieces and pawns but when the dust settled then hit a Queen vs Rook ending like the above but I didn’t know how to win and fell into a stalemate trap. That memory still hurts.

    pandolfini's endgame course covers this ending quite thoroughly. the general winning method begins with winning the rook through a series of must know checks. bravo for a great defense.

    at 8:43 kd2 to try to get a third rank defence would have been much more stubborn for the defence. It requires the attacker to actually know some specific move to break it. there were plenty of mistakes by the player with the queen but thats because this endgame is really tough for the attacker

      Approaching 40 years ago, Cray Blitz, a computer program played 2 different Room vs Queen endgame against then 6 time U.S. Open Champion, GM Walter Browne. The results?
      In the first go around, Browne, playing with the Queen failed to win under the 50 move rule!
      In the second, he did it on move 50!

    • @MrChrisdube

      Cray Blitz used your Rook on the third Rank/File to separate the King and Queen.

    Hello Sagar I know this already,but forgot, because I didn't practice long enough.
    Hats off to U for using words like military and air force to make it simple. that surely will help us remember better.
    Why dont you make endgame series like this one for less than( rating )1800 players who are large in numbers, need some help. Just a thought :)

    ohh!! thank you SAGAR ji . just won queen vs rook somehow bringing king closer. this analogy of using queen as air force is nice. i did not know about that mad rook concept and forced stalemates before. THANK you sir.

    @MrChrisdube 4 года назад

    Excellent video. Too many people assume this is easy. It isn't! My Chess Variant software with the computer playing both sides found the win... In 38 moves! If you are short on time, that is difficult.

    on 7:45 Is'nt Rc3 the correct move because for Kd3 Rd2 you can go KC3 and Kb3???

    @Nerdwithoutglasses 4 года назад +3

    13:52 I recommend Qd4+, win faster than zic-zac check.

    • @Nerdwithoutglasses
      @Nerdwithoutglasses 4 года назад +1

      @Anjali Patra After Qd4+, if Kf1, Qd1 mate, if king runs to h file then Qh8 check, now the king must go to g file ( note that Rh2 to block the check doesn't work due to Qa1 mate) now Qg8 check and capture the rook, this way is a bit faster anyway.

    The problem with this endgame is that, it is very hard to achieve the winning position here. I can win starting from that "winning" position, but I don't know how to force my opponent into reaching it.

    @7:44, if White goes Kd3, Black should play Rc3+ draw, and not give White another chance with Rd2+.

    There is no straight forward method to solve queen vs rook endgame. I mean tackle any random position with perfect accuracy. The way to solve this is to reduce the initial position to next lowest distance to mate position. For example if the initial position is 10 moves to mate then the goal is to reduce it to mate in 9 moves position then to 8,7,6,5,4,3,2 and 1. If anyone interested to learn this step by step then check this ruclips.net/p/PLVQF5gqzqrR4wXJsFGCqnZlJZatPenapD. In this you'll find compilation of puzzles for each distance to mate position. Currently up to 5 added.

    Why defence king plays Kc1 to avoid queen's maneuver.
