Chess Endgames 4 Strategical Endgames The fourth volume of the endgame series features a lot of themes with more
material, such as rook and minor piece versus rook (and
minor piece), rook versus two minor pieces, double rook endings, queen
and knight versus queen and bishop, the bishop pair and other endgame
principles.
Typical topics are:
The so-called "Fischer endgame" - rook and bishop
versus rook and knight. This ending occurs quite frequently in
practical play and is often favorable for the rook and bishop
tandem.
Opposite colored bishops with a rook on each side. The presence of one rook for
each side greatly increases the winning chances of the attacker
compared to the pure opposite colored bishop endgame (see the first DVD
in this series)
Queen and knight versus queen and bishop. The question of how to tell which side has the advantage is addressed.
Drawing methods in the pawnless
endgames. For example, rook and bishop versus rook, an endgame that often ends decisively.
Those who have always found studying endgames with chess textbooks too
dry and tedious will enjoy this DVD with its comfortable training
system and benefit enormously – in brilliant endgames at the actual
board. Complete video running time: approx. 6 hours.
System requirements: Pentium-Processor at 300 Mhz or higher, 64 MB RAM,
