Practical Endgame Play • Beyond the Basics • by Glenn Flear
the definitive guide to the endgames that really matter
EVERYMAN CHESS | 2007 | ISBN 1857445554 | English | PDF 600 dpi | 546 pages | 16.38 MB

Here... at long last... we have it. This is a new type of endgame book. It is a book which explains how to handle those positions that frequently occur in practical play but, curiously, are hardly ever the subject of theoretical works. Most endgame books rely on recycling the established theory on basic positions or concentrate on fantastical studies. This one is different. Well known grandmaster and endgame expert Glenn Flear examines all endgames which feature precisely two pieces for each side. Why is this an important subject? Because these situations arise surprisingly frequently in practical play. For example, an examination of any big database will reveal that the endgame of rook and minor piece versus rook and minor piece arises in nearly 20 per cent of games. That means that if you open with 1 e4, you are more likely to reach one of these endgames than you are to face the French Defence. If you can handle such endgames well, your results will inevitably improve. This book will show you how. There have been countless chess books written on endgame play, but one area has been by and large neglected: battles where one or both sides have exactly two pieces.; In "Practical Endgame Play - Beyond the Basics", endgame expert Glenn Flear makes steps to redress the balance by examining in detail a multitude of positions of this genre.
