Mastering Typical Rook Endgames
Mikhalchishin Adrian
The main concept of each book is to provide theoretical knowledge which can be used in practical games. It means the focus of the books will be on those positions which are most likely to occur — and the practical playing of them. That’s why you will firstly meet the theoretical part, and secondly the practical examples of how games actually continued in a particular endgame. Yes, you’re right, you won’t fi nd too many very complicated studies, stunning manoeuvres or rarely-appearing positions — and there is a simple reason why not! How often do we see positions, for example two knights vs pawn where one knight is blocking the pawn and the other one tries to get the king to the corner before releasing the second knight for the mate? Or constellations with crazy material on the board? This might happen in one game out of 100! You could spend hundreds of hours working on something that might bring you “only” a single point more out of 100 games!
