      @@godspeed5428 so having the opposition comes from being one square away from the enemy king, directly across from your king, at the end of your turn, meaning you move, and now there is one square between your king and the opponents, but its now his turn and can only move back or to the side. Distant opposition is the concept, where one is an odd number of squares, so is 3, 5 and 7, and knowing this, you have the same result if both kings were to start moving towards one another. Its opposition at a distance.

    I need more pawn endgames. King moves are very counter intuitive a lot of the time

    • @Questionmark142
      @Questionmark142 4 года назад +11

      i think one of the reasons for king moves being counterintuitive comes from diagonal movement. a king on a1 needs the same amount of moves to get to a8 then he needs to get to h8, even though the latter is much further away. so a king moves sort of faster when he goes diagonal.

      important parts of 2 bishops endgames are 1) centralizing all pieces, 2) slowly narrowing the amount of space king can move (but im pretty bad at chess so even then its sitll hard for me to convert as well)

    When is a Queen stronger than two rooks? It seems clear on most situations with otherwise equal material that the two rooks will prevail, how far ahead on pawns/what positions etc. can the Queen at least draw if not better? Is one pawn enough in most cases?

    8:32 "There's no way you're going to get that king out of the corner." But why not? We need you to finish the lesson and demonstrate it so beginners understand. You can say it, but I don't understand why that king can't be moved. If you'd taken ten seconds and shown what happens it would make sense.

      Because the black king will keep shuffling between a8 and b8 and you cannot get it out of the corner because the position will eventually lead to the pawn behind the black king in the corner and the white king will be either on a6 or b6 and moving away from the pawn results in a draw as well
