I don’t think it’s annoying at all. I like him. He was showing us how he thinks when he was working out the puzzle and you can tell he worked it out from scratch and didn’t immediately go to Stockfish to get the answer. Keep up the good work.
When you play Kd4 Black plays Kh4(opposition) Try thisline 1) Ke4. Kg4 2) Ke5. K g5 If white gets opposition white wins. So black tries for opposition 3) Ke6. K g6 4) Kd7. Kh 7 5) Kc6. Kg6 6) Kxb5. Kh5 7) Kc4. Kg4 8) Kd3. Kg3 9) Ke4. White wins
This idea and position I knew only with the pawn pair on b6 and b7 (white pawn on b6 and black pawn on b7) - I remember me the moves 1.Ke4 Kg4 2.Ke5 Kg3 3.Kf5 Zugzwang... But this study was as I said with pawns on b6 and b7.
After kd5 there is this very interesting defense for black with kh5, Im pretty sure its drawn after king d5, I believe ke5 was the winning move, followed by kd5
After Kd5 Kf5, the game can continue 1. Kd4 Kg4 2. Ke4 Kg5 3. Ke5 Kg4 4. Kf6 Kh4 5. Kf5 Kg3 6. Kg5 and black is finally in zugzwang and can no longer protect the pawn.
White is not winning, You didn t analyze the best defense. best try, best defense: 1. Ke4 Kg4 2. Kd5 Kf5! (Kg4?? +-) 3. Kd6 Kf6! 4. Kd7? Kd5!! -+, Kf7?? +- So White can t play 4. Kd7. 4. Kc7,c6,c5 -> Kg5 = remarkable: The fighting method of K vs K is opposition. But Not for eachbprice. There are corresponding fields in each Position. The opposition Making fields are normally such corresponding fields. In Retroanalysis you find Out which are the correspoding fields in positions before an Opposition and so on before. Sometimes tactical variants are more successful than opposition. Therefore Opposition is not ultimate. Another hint to Kings: There are two values in each piece. Firstly. The value of Change. P=1, N,B=3, R=5, Q=9 This values are fix. These pieces you may exchange. Secondly the immanent value of fighting force. This varies very hard and is deppendent on the positioning of the piece and the structure of the position. You know good and bad Bishop. centralyzed pieces, especially Knights or Rook at the seventh Rank and so on. Here you can also classify your King. He hast No Change value but he can eliminate pieces. Who can eliminte pieces, one can fight. By addition of fighting values of all pieces computers are calculating the true value of a position. Kings have a fighting value of nearly 4, stronger than Knights and Bishops, weaker than a Rook. You may see this in terms of control of the opponent figure, esspecially when there are no mating patterns. A rook controls easily a King and a King controls a Knight. The King may loose a tempo like a Bishop but he can change colours. He is a slaugtering machine against Pawns. Knights and Bishops need much more action against pawns. Kings may attack them frontal and they have no chance of bypassing them. These combined abilities make them very good fighters in the endgame. Their by far biggest disadvantage is the possibility to get mated. For all of this It is very important to maintain opposition for the worse placed King. The better placed King with the advantage of the opposition will destruct opponents defense lines by ripping off the base of their structures. Beware of the King. All Pawns are praying... Analyze each endgame in terms of Rook endings and Kingpower and your ELO rises up to unexpected heights. Why? Because the King ist always there and only one Rook in 50% of all endgames. No other studies give you such a great impact on your gameplay.
Thanks for your detailed comment. A slight correction in the variation you suggested. White has to play Kd4 and not Kd6 to keep winning. Kd6 leads to a draw as you have shown. A sample variation with Kd4 would look like 1. Kd4 Kf6 2.Ke4 Kg5 3.Ke5 and we reach the same position discussed in the video.

When you play Kd4 Black plays Kh4(opposition)
Try thisline
1) Ke4. Kg4
2) Ke5. K g5
If white gets opposition white wins. So black tries for opposition
3) Ke6. K g6
4) Kd7. Kh 7
5) Kc6. Kg6
6) Kxb5. Kh5
7) Kc4. Kg4
8) Kd3. Kg3
9) Ke4. White wins
This idea and position I knew only with the pawn pair on b6 and b7 (white pawn on b6 and black pawn on b7) - I remember me the moves 1.Ke4 Kg4 2.Ke5 Kg3 3.Kf5 Zugzwang... But this study was as I said with pawns on b6 and b7.
It's 9 moves to Queen, not 8, as you also have to get the King out of the pawn's path (around 3:00).
exactly!
Keep it up man, very helpful.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Behind the black pawn
Really interesting. I thought it is a draw, but White is not going to the b- pawn, but instead to f5 for Zugzwang. Great position.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great
Glad you liked it
After kd5 there is this very interesting defense for black with kh5, Im pretty sure its drawn after king d5, I believe ke5 was the winning move, followed by kd5
Thanks! I could not find the right move.
Your analisis has a mistake, because 7:29 after Kd5 Black will play Kf5 and it is a DRAW! If not, then write please moves for White!
After Kd5 Kf5, the game can continue 1. Kd4 Kg4 2. Ke4 Kg5 3. Ke5 Kg4 4. Kf6 Kh4 5. Kf5 Kg3 6. Kg5 and black is finally in zugzwang and can no longer protect the pawn.
@@YourAverageChessPlayer Thank you!
Great!
Glad you enjoyed it!
A winning Position would it be, If the white Pawn ist on b5, black pawn on b6.
thank you
This was impressive. I’m pretty sure I will find out the way to lose that game with white 😅
Hahaha! :D
Your analysis is ideal for a 1500. As an expert, I couldn’t stomach more than 2 minutes. LOL
😂
It's annoying that you keep repeating mistakes over and over 😅
🤣
White is not winning, You didn t analyze the best defense.
best try, best defense:
1. Ke4 Kg4
2. Kd5 Kf5! (Kg4?? +-)
3. Kd6 Kf6!
4. Kd7? Kd5!! -+, Kf7?? +-
So White can t play 4. Kd7.
4. Kc7,c6,c5 -> Kg5 =
