The endgame has always been a particularly instructive phase of chess play. it provides the perfect opportunity for understanding the potential power of each chess piece in every chess situation-from opening move to checkmate. Yet unfortunately. the endgame is often viewed as an inaccessible area of play by average players whose experience is usually limited to watching championship games. Now Pandolfini's Endgame Course changes all that. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

This book is usually recommended for beginner's, but I must say that I was surprised to find a good amount of material that is more advanced. I'm over 1900 USCF and there are many positions where the solution was not easily apparent. The Queen versus Rook endgames and the B+R versus R are not easy, not to mention that early in the book he covers B+N mate against a lone king. I know plenty of experts that would be hard pressed to pull that off in under 50 moves - especially in blitz or time trouble! It's the best explanation I've ever seen of B+N, but it might discourage the intended (beginner) audience. There is also plenty of stuff that is very basic.I really like this book, but it also far from perfect. ( )
