      Daniel Naroditsky is another great teacher, he's 2600+ GM, with just a goldmine of great information, without the grating presentation of a Finegold or Gothamchess.

    Comparing Rosen's lecture here with Friedel and Feingold, I like Rosen best. He tries to instruct more. Feingold just cracks a bunch of jokes and whizzes past important moves. Friedel tries to instruct, but sometimes makes fast moves, forgetting that his GM thinking is blowing past us. This is a really GOOD lecture on endgames!

    Of all the chess videos I’ve watched over UA-cam I really think this is the most useful one. There are so many videos regarding openings, traps and tricks. But if you’re playing someone around equal skill level you’ll eventually reach an end game. I think this would be the most practical place to start to study.

    24:48 Ya! U need 2 check the king 2 force him to block his own pawn, where u bring ur king in 2 help. Rinse & Repeat. Only works with b, d, e, & g pawns. The c+f pawns are a draw 1 square from promotion, because he can indirectly defend the pawn from the corner, (stalemate) as well as the normal direct defense squares, which means that he doesn't need to block the pawn. The a+h pawns are also a draw because blocking pawn from b/g file check threatens 2 be stalemated. :) (1 square from queen ofc) The exception though is at 26:02 where ya must play Qd6 2 make progress.

    Very instructive lecture with many lines that show various options for both sides! Only suggestion if you don't mind: When you explain P vs K you must give much more emphasis on the fact that the position with WK in front of the pawn on 6th rank is always winning. Beginner can be confused when hear that is draw possible earlier but on 6th rank you just say: And its normaly winning. No its not normaly, its a kind of chess law and need to be remembered: 6th rank - no draw!! Please, don't mind for this suggestion. Think that might be helpful to many unexperienced chess beginners. Cheers!
