Weekly Endgame Study (68)

26 April 2008 10:00 AM

Every Saturday an endgame study is published at ChessVibes, selected by IM Yochanan Afek: player, trainer, endgame study composer and writer. A week later the solution is published. Good luck with the instructional occupation of solving a study!

    I am considering
    1. d7, Nf7
    2. e6, g1Q
    3. exf7+, Kh7!
    4. f8N+!
    (4.d8Q?, Qg7+ 5. f6, Qxf6+! 6. Qxf6 =)
    4. …, Kg8!
    5. Ne6!
    (5. d8Q?, Qg7+ 6. f6, Qxf6+! 7. Qxf6 =)
    5. …, Kf7!
    6. d8R! (6. d8Q?, Qxb1+! 7. Kxb1 =)
    Now White has a winning material advantage that he should be able to consolidate, for example 6. …, Qh2 7. Rd2 etc. The a-pawn will ultimately bring victory.

Got something to say?
