@PowerPlayChess There is a Beautiful Study Composed by Vladimir Bron who was soviet Problemist showcasing the best study for the triangulation rule, it took me about 38 minutes to solve from first position until the end and i showed it to many of my Iranian Titled Players and they couldn't solve it in first hand and needed a lot of time. i think the position deserves a video :) i will just type the Piece Configuration for you Mr King W: g2 f4 d7 Bc8 Rb2 Kg6 B: h6 h2 f5 e6 e7 Be1 Kc7 White to move and Win !! Truly Astonishing Composition And as Always Thanks For The Videos :)

Okay, I had a go (without computer): 1. d8=Q+ Kxd8 2. Rc2 h1=Q 3. Bxe6 Bc3 4. Rxc3 Qxg2+. White's mate threat is lined up. Black can defend but checking puts up more resistance: 5. Kxh6 Qh1+ 6. Kg6 Qg1+. Now 7. Kxf5 doesn't work due to 7. ... Qb1+ 8. Kg5 Qg1+ 9. Kh6 Qh1+, with Kg6 met by Qe4+ and Kg7 by Qa1. White has other plans, but needs to be careful, as 7. Kf7 leads to the main line but with White to move in the mutual zugswang at move 11. So: 7. Kh7 Qh1+ 8. Kg8 Qg1+ 9. Kf8. Black cannot defend the mate, and doing so wouldn't work here, but has a stalemate trick: 9. ... Qc5. White can continue though with 10. Rc4 Qc6 11. Kf7 - mutual zugswang. Transferring the rook to c4 means that White can now go after the f5 pawn: 11. ... Qc5 12. Kg6 Qg1+ 13. Kxf5 Qb1+ 14. Kg5 Qg1+ 15. Kh6 Qh2+ 16. Kg7 Qb2+ 17. Kg8 Qg2+ 18. Kf7 Qc6. We have returned to the previous setup, except clearing the f5 pawn out the way means White can use his own f-pawn: 19. f5 Qc5 20. Kg8 Qg1+ 21. Kf8 Qc5 22. f6 and Black's defences crumble: 22. ... Qxc4 23. fxe7+ 1-0.

Beautifully explained. From the myriad chess channels available, yours is my favourite (one other comes close). It's the combination of technical standard, delivery speed, informal/formal balance, humility and ideas. I think sadly, the endgame is glossed over, especially by younger players, as, with the advent of fast finishes, there is often no time to properly calculate and appreciate them. Even world class GM Firouzja stumbled.

Daniel, check out the double triangulation of Dzindzichashvili vs. Beliavsky, in the 1984 Chess Olympiad. From the 80th move forward, white triangulates twice in a row to break black's fortress!! I will not explain the winning idea behind the double triangulation, but it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen on a chess board.

Hello GM King. A lovely example, thanks! Would you consider doing a mini-series on triangulation using different pieces? The famous Philidor Position in QvR, for example, where the Queen triangulates. May I also suggest a rook "triangulation" in the endgame W: Kd3, Rb1, Pd4; B: Ka5, Rd8; W to play and win. Thanks again!

@vicentevazquez3917 14 күн бұрын

Nice video, as usual. Karpov wrote a book titled "Chess Kaleidoscope" in which he talks about " The theory of corresponding squares" a closed related topic to triangulation. I'm sure you know about that theory, could you talk in one of your great videos about it?

I'm a very poor chess historian but I see Nimzo and a knight and I feel like there's something familiar about this even though I've never seen it before. :) Double triangulation, of course. Nice lesson. Thanks!

At 11;39, what happens if the white king goes to f2? He negates black's triangulation with a triangle of his own.

@Guitare_picking 10 күн бұрын

I recall a Study by Zinar Mikhail where there is some kind of triangulatio. Here is the FEN : 8/8/8/Pp1k4/1P2p3/4K3/8/8 w - - 0 1 Probably not a impressive as this one, but still you have to lose a tempo without alowing counterplay. Once you get the idea, it's not that complicated.

A very instructive ending . In the position where White plays Bb2 can’t Black make his life easier by just immediately playing Kxg3 instead of capturing the Bishop and having to calculate a still somewhat tricky line ?

The commentators were shocked over Firouzja's move, and so was I. Apparently 90% of the chess world knew that was losing.

A celebrated triangulation, but in my opinion much easier than these.

@dhslye 14 күн бұрын

In the position after Bb2 in which white's king is on b1 and the black king is on f3, isn't Kxg3 a little better? e.g., ...Kxg3, Bxa3 Kxg3, Bd6 Kf3, a4 g2, a5 g1(Q)+ etc. Although the other line is also winning, it involves Q vs. Q, whereas in this line white never queens.

@michaelblankenau6598 14 күн бұрын

I looked at the same thing . After 1…Kxg3 2. Bxa3 Kxf4 White can play 3. Bc5 but after Ke4 4. d5 Kxd5 White has a much simpler win then having to calculate that double Queen ending .
