Chess endgames combine beauty and precision in the final phase of a chess game, and chess endings are where good positions are won and bad positions are saved. Of course, anyone who studies chess endings will want chess endgame software and chess endgame books - but there's nothing like sitting back and watching a Grandmaster on TV (or even your laptop!) with a chess endgame DVD. Those new to chess endgames might try Endgame Self Training, then perhaps an intermediate and advanced chess endgame DVD with Susan Polgar. You can even find a comprehensive 8-hour chess endgame DVD survey, Part 1 & Part 2, with Roman Dzindzichashvili. Definitely try a chess endgame DVD - many hard fought battles are won only by good endgame technique!
