7:10 what if the opponent plays king b6 ?

To block the white king

@@bakanikelebantse6760that’s not a legal move because the pawn attacks that square

@@bakanikelebantse6760 ⁠​⁠​⁠Yes, king to b6 with an enemy king on b5.

Ohh did you mean black king to there?

He thinks it’s brilliant so he puts it, and the moves ARE brilliant.

I love chess.

My son is sick and typing, so please like this message: Amazing how the position looks so hopeless yet there's still a solution.

​ @gotophealthcareptyltd8305 I hope your son gets better soon 🙏

Happy to help!

Wow, thanks!

thank you very much 🎉

You're welcome 😊

It seems to me too. White loose.

After Black Kb6 instead of h4, White makes the exact same move of Kf6. Black cannot Kxb6 here without losing their own pawn too, so black pushes h4. White moves Ke5. Again, Black cannot Kxb6 without losing the h pawn, so h3. White can no longer capture the h pawn now, so Kd6 instead. Black King can no longer do anything relevant, so Black h2. White c7. Black may choose to transpose the position to the video with Kb7 which forces white to Kd7, but let's assume they do h1 instead, and promote queen. White also promotes queen on c8. This position is also a draw, but it's Black spamming checks instead of White.

thought the same

Wrong. Kf6 still. If black king takes, Kg5, you are in the square and stop their pawn. If pawn push, again Ke5. The black king simply cannot take your pawn or it will be draw.

@@jaideepshekhar4621 after Kf6, you don't capture immediately though, you can push the pawn first right?

take some anti inflammatory hahahahha

No they can’t. It’s called a check. You can’t check when you’re in check

Glad to hear that

Not really

depends what part of the game you wanna grasp… send me a DM on IG

Thanks!

i know some important positions in endgames such as the philidor in both queen vs rook rook vs pawn vancura lucena distant opposition diagonal opposition outflanking sacrificing to get passed pawn and more that need to be visualized to understand endings better
