These recent endgame puzzles are surprisingly tricky and require precise moves to win, that can only be identified after thorough analysis of many tempting alternatives. Wonderful exposition. 👍

[@tottenvillelegend826]

Very instructive, thanks for sharing!

[@YourAverageChessPlayer]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@petersiegfriedkrug]

Instructiv yes, but not the whole chess study. And so far as I know it is only a part of a study and also mirrored. Also it is not mentioned the composer.

If the attacker can reach a key square (in this case f4,g4,h4) the endgame is winning…
You just have to see that black black can‘t defend the pawn

[@user-mf6tf9ub6b]

3:38 white is actually winning because of g4, that forces the black king to stop protecting the pawn.

En passant

[@JustAnotherTuber82]

​@Kwaiiii which actually forces a draw and not a loss, so better to let it draw imo.

@@JustAnotherTuber82 the question here is if its a win for white, if black doesnt take white just wins the pawn and promotes, okay black can have an opposition so a draw, but in any way g4 doesnt win for white

[@petersiegfriedkrug]

No, sir. This is too easy. Very often you find this position on RUclips!!

Endgame Manual

Yes, it is an amazing book to study endgame positions :) - Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual

[@stevenlarkin1706]

Should be a draw.

[@robtsteiner]

why does g2 to g4 not considered a enpassant

[@rogerkearns8094]

It's only en passant if Black pawn is on f4 or h4.

[@peteneville698]

Mate, you really need to learn to get to the point without the waffle.

Cool, thanks. You ought to say this in the descriptions.

[@YourAverageChessPlayer]

Thanks for the feedback. I will credit positions if it is from a composer next time :)
