The term "Lucena position" in chess is named after the Spanish chess player Juan José Lucena (often referred to simply as "Lucena"), who is credited with discovering or formalizing the concept in the 15th century. Lucena was an important figure in early chess literature, and his contributions helped shape the modern understanding of chess endgames.
I'm going to say this. I have many chess books, including Silmans Complete Endgame Course from Beginner to Master, and he expounds on these positions in great detail. It's easier watching him teach than it is trying to learn it from a book by yourself. This is the most instructive teaching you're gonna find and I can't believe that #1, you have all these videos and, #2, you're giving this information away for free. I don't think people realize what's going on here.
Great video, didn't knew it was silman, first time watching him teach, just amazing! Thank you for providing such high quality videos. Have a great day! Subbed. ❤
But at 5:36 mark black can push that pawn once again forcing white king to move one space back to capture it, then black king can move towards white pawns on E4 and achieve opposition.
3:50 but if two GMs have that exact position, they won't be able to gain the opposition because both of them know about opposition so they will just shake hands and agree to a draw, yes?

This is absolutely great. Free chess lesson anw this is the third lesson I'm watching on the channel
I find your lectures so informative. Mr. Silman was the best teacher. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We aim to make chess more accessible for all players.
This channel is great! Didn't realize this was Silman. I have "How to Reassess your Chess" on my desk, and it has greatly improved my play.
Welcome to the chess family! IM is the best
Excellent. Jeremy Silman explanation on Triangulation, Lucena and Philidor position are made simple to understand. Thanks.

23:58
23:47 epic blunder because 1. Kd7 - Rh7+ wins for black. Instead 1. Ra8+ - Kg7 2.Kd7 is the right move order
I came to comment this but now I don't have to. :) Maybe pinned comment worthy so others can learn?
Same here.
Having just watched the Blitz tournament I don't understand why you wouldn't just offer a draw at the first chance.
But at 5:36 mark black can push that pawn once again forcing white king to move one space back to capture it, then black king can move towards white pawns on E4 and achieve opposition.
28:06 Actually, there are SIX pieces, not five. :)
Yeah truee
3:50 but if two GMs have that exact position, they won't be able to gain the opposition because both of them know about opposition so they will just shake hands and agree to a draw, yes?
Why would they do that? White has a guaranteed way to gain opposition and win via the triangulation concept...
Its good ... thinks
Yes mr rachid
