Hello Everyone! Chess endgames can be extremely complex and that’s why we should study them as much as possible. There are many rules we can use to guide us through this stage of the game and in this lesson, we will talk about a few of them. The several-moves-in-a-row rule is one of them and you will see how Jose Raul Capablanca puts it into practice along with other concepts such as the take-it-easy rule and the principle of the two weaknesses.

Learn how to play Chess the right way from beginner to master level. National Master Robert Ramirez will take you up the pyramid by following a proven Chess training program he has been improving and implementing for over 10 years.
Benefits of Playing Chess:
​- Promotes brain growth
- Increases problem-solving skills
- It exercises both sides of the brain
- Raises your IQ
- Sparks your creativity
- Teaches planning and foresight
- Teaches patience and concentration
- Optimizes memory improvement
- Improves recovery from stroke or disability
- Helps treat ADHD
Chess is an intellectual battle where players are exposed to numerous mental processes such as analysis, attention to detail, synthesis, concentration, planning and foresight. Psychological factors are also present on and off the board; playing Chess stimulates our imagination and creativity. Every single move a player makes is the result of a deep analysis based on the elements presented on the battlefield.
Chess in its essence teaches us psychological, sociological and even moral values. In a Chess game, both players start with the same amount of material and time. The fact that the white pieces move first is considered to be practically irrelevant -especially because a player typically plays one game as white and one game as black. Consequently, the final result of the battle solely depends on each player. It doesn’t matter if you win by taking advantage of your opponent’s mistakes or by simply avoiding mistakes yourself. Truth is that Chess is an extremely individual sport and our defeats can only be blamed on ourselves and no one else. And this, in the end, only benefits us because we learn to be and feel responsible for our actions and never come up with excuses to justify ourselves.
We also learn that when it comes to our victories on the board, our opponent's mistakes play a more significant role than our own skills. Let’s not forget that a Chess game without any mistakes would be a draw. This way, Chess provides us with another valuable life lesson: be humble at all times.

Very helpful advice here with the 'many moves in a row' and the 'keep it easy' principles. My initial plan was to simply trade the pieces and bet on the extra pawn, but I know better now.

Thank you for this other great video! You are a great coach. Your explanations are so clear and easy to understand. In this endgame, I will have exchange my Knight for the Bishop without thinking further down the road. I am a big fan of Capablanca. I love its "take it easy but surely" approach. I also like your comments to RedGamin23 which is "Do not push the passed pawns until we improve our pieces position". I lost too many endgames because I did not follow this rule.

White is better due to the pawn majority on the queenside and the fact that black's rook must remain where it is to protect the f pawn. Maybe white can try to cut the black king off of the quenside and push the pawns over there. Also white can first block the c7 pawn and then target it. The knight and king can come in the center or the queenside and help with the pawn pushes or the capture of the f pawn.

My ideas for a plan: Try to create a passed pawn on the Queen side - I am a pawn up. Place your king side pawns on dark squares or try to exchange the knight against the bishop or place the knight before the black c-pawn on c5 (or c3?) The white king should go to the queen side. Try to cut off the black king from the queen side. Do NOT exchange rooks. Probably too many plans for a single game😀

I just joined your channel and just want to ask, I have played chess since college but strictly as an amateur, no study or serious intention. Now I am more interested in improving.

Thank you, Alvin! And it's great to know you are back 💪 If you want to start from scratch, I recommend you do the following: 1) Go over the title of the lessons in this channel starting from # 1 and start where you see something you don't know or need to refresh. Every material is in order and you should not skip anything. 2) Train tactics (a lot) from websites like chess.com/lichess or from books, which are my favorite source since you will find explanation for every exercise. 3) Pick up a Chess book where the author reviews games and explains the moves and ideas from opening to endgame. It is just a great way to complement your training and you will learn a lot of Chess. In the description of this video you will see my book recommendations. Depending on your level, you might like the one about Carlsen or the one about Kramnik. With that said, there are other great books out there -even for free. 4) Play games. 5) Ask me any questions you might have. Hope this answers your question 👍

We are certainly up a pawn but black pieces have the bishop advantage on an open game. However they have an isolated pawn which we could put pressure on by playing Nd4 attacking the Bishop(if they don't move we trade and they don't have that bishop advantage) and when they move it , we can play Nb5 forking the rook and the pawn and eventually grabbing the pawn?

I wrote a novella in my notebook: My eval/plan: White has the advantage, I think about +1.5. White has an extra pawn--passed & protected vs Black's isolated pawn. I like the bishop better here and Black's king is slightly closer to the center which is why I have it at +1.5 instead of +2. Just due to the pawns on both flanks with the open center. I like White's rook much better than Black's rook which seems very passive on a7. So my plan would be to blockade Black's isolated pawn by putting the knight on c6 and then try to push the queenside pawns. Also I would like to trade the knight for the bishop if the opportunity arises. I think the king's first job (for White) is to try to keep Black's king from doing anything on the king side but I'm not really sure on the king side plans at all. Now on to the rest of the video to learn the actual plan. ;)

Can you please shed some light on the thought process for reaching this ideal position with Ke3 Rc3 Nd4 and pawn formation with b4 f4? Because for me I only saw Nxf6 and create a "2 weakness" situation. How do you learn this style of thinking of "control" and actually knowing it will be fully controling rather than "cashing in on what is visible on the board right now"? *I understand you did mention controlling up to 5th rank and that may answer the 1st part of my question but... Maybe naive but why would even controlling up to 5th be so good for us, and how do you know which positions this concept can apply to and which not? :)

I'm currently paused at 3:03 and I would say that White has the better position. Although Black's King is closer to the centre of the board (2 moves instead of 3), White is up a pawn and he also has the Knight to hop around, which is better for getting forks and also for eliminating pawns.

I believe white is better, white has an extra passed pawn, which is protected. Black has an isolated pawn. But black has a bishop which could become annoying if rooks get traded off, because it can control both sides of the board unlike our knight. Id find a way to trade off light pieces, cut off the black king, activate my king and push my pawn majority 16:18 of course its a check because there's only one legal move take the pawn in-passing 20:05 yeah, I know what it feels to blunder a queen in the endgame because you only have 10 seconds left. Luckily I had 2 passed pawns left and i managed to to win with only 1 second on the clock

Hello! I tried it because other viewers also gave it a go . I think we have to continue with the same mindset as Capablanca. Do not push the passed pawns until we improve our pieces position -in this case, our king. I started with Kc5 after they did Bh7 and then offered a rooks trade. Soon leaving me with a simple King and Knight + two pawns vs King and Bishop.

Since there are pawns left and right the bishop is better. White is up a past pawn though. My overall plan for white would be to trade the knight for the bishop and try to promote the past pawn. White should have the upperhand here I think. You can also sez that black is a bit stuck here having to protect that c7 pawn with the rook.

I want to get my Q side pawns rolling eventually. Takes time. My R should protect them but I do not want the R on a white sq so Rc3 then b4 to stabilize the Q side. Then my Nd4 and my K to the center. Perhaps placing my K side pawns on black if attacked by the B. Then a dance between my pieces and his resulting in me pushing the Q side pawns. Capa was a master at handling pawns so I am guessing he will handle the K side pawns with more purpose than what I can see.

My plan for this endgame is to get pawn to a3, b4, rook protect the root of pawn at third rank, King and Knight pair up to the left, possibly putting knight at c5 as outpost. Honestly speaking from here onwards if my opponent defend well and dont make mistake i dont have any clear plan to win if the A pawn could not advance. I dont know how to create second weakness that you show us on the right hand side with equal number of pawns. I have read some lesson regarding queen side / king side minority plan. But really no idea how to win if both side are equals (without double pawn).

Hello! I have talked about it in the different lessons about Pirc and King's Indian Defense. At the beginning of lesson # 85 for example. The King's Indian Attack is simply with the white pieces as we covered in lesson # 79. The Pirc is with Black vs 1.e4 while the King's Indian Defense is with Black too, but against 1.d4. Hope this makes sense 👍

My plan was different compared to his. What I thought of was to put the rook on c3 and advance my b-pawn. Reasoning is, I see a pawn majority on the queen side and my opponent's rook is tied down to defending the c7 pawn. One idea I thought my opponent can do is to bring the King to defend the c7 pawn though and enabling his own rook to move. But what do I know, I'm just some 1400. xD Another simpler idea I thought of was to just to plop my knight on e4 just to threaten Nb5, forking the rook and pawn while also threatening to just take the bishop and I just assume I have a better position leaving my opponent with 2 isolated pawns once I bring my King into the game.

Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts, Angelo! I like your evaluation and plans. The concepts covered in this lesson are just to provide you with a different perspective and additional tools for you to consider when playing endgames. Next time you have to evaluate an endgame position, you will consider these rules for sure. That's part of the process 👍

My plan would have been: Try to get pieces to dark squares. If I can get a knight outpost on c5 that could help promote my a-pawn. If I got chance I probably wouldn't trade the bishop for knight as I need the knight to keep attacking the blockading squares so I can keep pushing my pawns. I don't envisage my king being a big part of the pawn pushing, I think he just guards the kingside. Am about to watch the rest of the video now but thought I'd put this here upfront so you know what level your viewers are at.

from the middle game capablanca left him with 2 isolated pawns and then he exchanged queens to enter the end games and exchanged the good knhight of his opponent; I have not yet finished the lessons to see the rules but I think he will play on the colors of the scares now etc; the rapid activity of his knighte etc; maybe he will change the rooks or not but I prefer the position of capablanca more strategic, playing on the colors the oppositions etc hehehhe, if not sorry for my comment I wrote it before finishing the lesson; I just learned the game by heart on the link you shared and I stopped at the position you are going to show without knowing the result by trying to put myself in the place of capablanca if I'm right I'll be proud otherwise I will have learned a lot of things after learning our lesson; thank you sooo much muster; if you have other capabalanca games, tal; anand to tell me you will make me happy if you share their links like that too; I wish you happiness dear brother

Hey Mark! I just tried it. I think we have to continue with the same mindset as Capablanca. Do not push the passed pawns until we improve our pieces position. In this case our king. I started with Kc5 after they did Bh7 and then offered a rooks trade. Soon leaving me with a simple King and Knight + two pawns vs King and Bishop.

Thanks for your lesson. You never explained the logic behind Capablanca desired position. How does he arrive at these objectives? Regarding that final position at the end of the video: It is really hard to win against best playing computer. I tried 8 times. The position is by no means simple at that point. Preventing the opponents counterplay is difficult. I guess you thought it would be easy. I find it very difficult. I'm not Capablanca or a National Master! I did recognize that white has two outside passers against blacks lone passed pawn on the queens side and so the object was to promote one of those. Edit: Ok, further down you described how you approached it. I was able to win with white following that advise. I too had started with moving Rg7 but I did not move my Kc5 and was finding it difficult. Black also plays an alternative move order and then i still get draws and could not win: 1. h4 Ba2 I have tried several moves but i could not find a way to win. In this case I did not find a way to force a rook trade to simplify the game.
