Thank you for including Igor Ivanov!! He was a dear friend of mine when we lived in the suburbs of Salt Lake City. I was only a beginner adult chess player then. But he helped me get up to 1600 before he had to move. During our time, we frequently hung out with local chess players at his home where he entertained us with piano and blindfold chess. i have amazing memories of that time.

[@thecolorsapp1403]

Bonus reference to The Master and Margarita. Nice one, Danny!

[@hhgygy]

One of the greatest novels of all time.

[@AlonsoRules]

also to Bobby Fischer with the bishop trapped on the second rank with the last move

[@TheJayman760]

Igor Ivanov once offered me a draw in a tournament game and I declined! It was the last round of a tournament he had already won and he wanted to bail. I wanted to play the great man and he quickly crushed me.

[@jprw]

This game features in the book Liquidation on the Chess Board: Mastering the Transition into the Pawn Ending By Joel Benjamin 🙂

[@PowerPlayChess]

☺️Joel is a man of great taste.

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

It is indeed a fantastic book. I like the picture of a young GM King, took me back to your early days on TV. Well played Daniel and thanks.

[@hhgygy]

Great endgame analysis. Thank you.

[@AlonsoRules]

Ivanov defected because he beat Karpov in a game and was allowed to travel overseas. Perhaps show that game, it changed his life.

[@advandepol7537]

It's not easy against a competing capitalist system to keep your talented people, who have been invested in, working for the country.

[@robclark4626]

There's a couple of games with Igor on my channel when he was in London during a televised tournament. Lovely man.

[@staygoldpwnyboy923]

What a dashing young man in this thumbnail! Still have all that gorgeous hair! I'll have to check out that book you mention, The Master and Margarita, sounds like it could be good.

[@DG-ss2zd]

Great game and story, thanks!

[@rageagainstthemachineragea2497]

Great Lesson 👋🏾💯 Grandmaster King!

[@andrewhaldenby4949]

Wonderful Daniel ty

[@jp_64]

Hi Mr. King, I'd love to have a series on your chess journey. I'm sure Lots of lovely stories, interesting characters (like Korchnoi), and the transition from playing openings like the King's Gambit and English Defence to more mainstream openings like the QGD. I'm sure everyone would love this series if you have the time to make it! Cheers, thanks for the fun intro and analysis!

[@potzysk2]

Very nice, thank you. Entertaining and instructive even for an FM!

[@romanogiordi7429]

Very interesting ! Nice to see one of your games and also to hear about Boulgakov !

[@Archdesign67]

Incredible, the followup after the exchange on e6 was still tricky to calculate. Triangulation example at its best!

[@kidnuke2]

I remember him playing at our local club Chess Emporium in Phoenix.

[@mcronrn]

Excellent!!

[@aarongifs]

thank you, love your videos you rock

[@aarongifs]

Also keep going with more triangulation! I have learned this technique but something I have never really internalized. Seeing your last few videos on the subject I feel like I am startin gto understand!

[@user-im8ne5wx4e]

Thank you Mr King❤❤❤❤

[@davidheath5429]

Absolutely amazing! It always seems to me that in king and pawn endings the intuitive move is always the wrong one.

[@PowerPlayChess]

In pawn endgames you have to calculate - there is no substitute. We can be guided by intuition, as I was here, but if it fails the crunch of calculation you reset and look at something else.

[@iconicon5642]

Fantastic

[@LateCloser]

Nice endgame.
I saw b5 but then I struggled with the triangulation visualization. I think when I'm visualizing these positions I'll see the same position(piece location wise) but with alternating sides to move and just think it's the same thing. It just doesn't register that a different side has the move, which obviously changes everything. That's something I need to get better at. :)

[@DavidSchilter]

As Danny says, you 'gotta get the RIGHT triangle". That is true in every sense of the word. And what a crazy immigration story that Igor has. Happy that it all worked out :)

[@nomoreblitz]

what do you recommend for an intermediate player for K&P endgames. "Intermediate" means not advanced! For example, while I did calculate this triangulation solution on my own after a few minutes, it was solely because: (1) I've been through 100EGs YMK; AND, (2) you prompted us in the title of the video and at the position where it arose. In my own games, I avoid K&P endings nearly always...

[@PowerPlayChess]

[@michaelf8221]

I messed up and tried to triangulate with Kf5. After Kh3 Kg6 I once again missed g4! hxg4 Kxg4= with opposition.

[@Bandaroj]

Wann gibt es ein Video zu der legendären Partie Voland gegen Behemoth?

[@gislimagnusson7152]

Very instructive. I understood the rigth plans: fixing the queen side pawns and triangulating to get the opposition, but started the pawn fixing with the move a6. Maybe that also works?

[@PowerPlayChess]

Depends on the position, but it will probably work. However, it feels better to leave the pawn on a7 as it gives the option to play the pawn either one square or two.

[@gislimagnusson7152]

@@PowerPlayChess Thank you for the clarification, Daniel!

[@anandmoon5701]

Gain the opposite with the king and pawn endgame. ❤

[@rageagainstthemachineragea2497]

Were you Sigourney Weaver's body double in Aliens?

[@PowerPlayChess]

Yes.

[@luigi777aa]

Did Louis XIV play chess? That was my milisecond reaction after seeing the image.

[@davidtribble485]

taken way to soon.
