Creating Plans in the Endgame

[@jasonkua7412]

The changing of your background is awesome,stjepan.

[@alexwastakenwastaken]

It's like he's trapped in a hellish Escheresque nightmare!

[@samhatts5601]

This is a wonderful video that has really made me rethink my endgames, thank you

[@ss9392]

The aesthetics of you videos just keep getting better!

[@HangingPawns]

Thanks!

[@nicbentulan]

4:30 but computer actually says Ra4 is better. why do we favour exf5+ then? or it's not really about the move in the position but the move as part of the plan of creating another weakness?

[@michaelpaige6640]

Truly an EXCELLENT training video. Well done. 👍

[@tommonk7651]

I agree with you about Rubinstein. He's a very under appreciated player.

[@punamlathi8957]

Awesome way stephen bro

[@iuliu_]

Your videos are gold. Cheers from your (almost) neighbour Romania!

[@Telor21]

love this channel, thanks for the instructive content!

[@richmond3083]

Hey Stjepan, this is unrelated to the video but I love the new merch. Especially the King's Gambit t-shirt. I hope you release more, I might consider getting some soon, I really appreciate your channel!

[@HangingPawns]

Thanks:D I am working on a few more designs. Glad you like them!

[@nicbentulan]

0:50 WRONG! i plan in the endgame just as much as in the middlegame: NOTHING. trolololol. now looks like i'll be the 1st chess player in history to plan something in the endgame but not plan anything in the middlegame lol

[@darshtrivedi9806]

Sir in second example as per my calculation kg3 is slightly better than B f1 it then we can push f4 f5 he will have two options with bishop or stop a6 pawn queen or let the king infiltrate my engine is giving the same idea

[@boredash4020]

are you using a green screen or did you change your recording workplace? great video either way, in the endgame i mostly just find my self shuffling pieces until my opponent blunders,works wonders in the lichess sub-2000 lobby, but i get crushed by any half-decent player !

[@HangingPawns]

I'm at a different place:)

[@sausage2089]

7:40 I don’t think you want to play Re4 here

[@mekelius]

Yes I think he misspoke. If black doesn't respond, a3>a4>trade pawns and c pawn is pinned to the rook and falls.

[@nicbentulan]

14:30 nice job levon aronian for winning an opposite coloured bishop endgame by coming up with the right plan! according to josh waitzkin they are drawish iirc. then again levon aronian was up a pawn already sooo...

[@jedersaq]

Why not a3 and B4 ? Wouldn't this also work?

[@raghunathanchandrasekaran8632]

Nice

Love from India.. (Hope if i can play you and get your analysis on it)

Studying endgames is a quest to find truth in chess; a student can prove definitively a game's outcome.

You could play f3 in the first position and cement your control on centre

I think what you said, in the beginning, is wrong. It is in the end game you make a mistake you lose. You have less chance to correct your mistake because the material is less.
