| It is vital that players know how to handle (and win!) the basic
endgames in chess. Time spent mastering the endgame will prove far more
valuable than learning a few opening lines. In Chapter 1 of this DVD,
Susan covers all the most important chess endgames for the novice
player.
Susan will show you how to checkmate a lone King, using a Queen,
then a Rook, then 2 Bishops or a Knight and Bishop. Even some unusual
mates are included. In Chapter 2 Susan covers all the basic pawn
endgames, the Rook's pawn, Opposition, the Rule of the Square, and
Geometry in chess. Topics include the pawn race, two extra pawns, one
side Queens first, King activity - and lots more!
