3- Endgame King and Pawn versus King
The foundation of all pawn endings — when one extra pawn wins, when it draws, and the geometric concepts of key squares and the rule of the square that decide every case in three rules of thumb.
- Endgame The Opposition
The most important concept in king-and-pawn endings — the geometric position of two kings facing each other on the same file with one square between them, and how the side without the move-tempo is forced to step aside.
- Endgame Triangulation
The technique for losing a tempo with the king — taking three moves to reach a square the opponent reaches in two, and using the spare move to force the opponent into zugzwang.
