Endings with rook and minor piece against rook and minor piece occur
very frequently, even more often than rook endings. But there is not
much literature on them. The new endgame DVD fills this gap. The four
different material constellations rook and knight vs rook and knight,
rooks and opposite coloured bishops and same coloured bishops and
rook and bishop vs rook and knight are dealt with. The last
configuration has been split into two chapters as those endings where
the side with the bishop is better are completely different from
examples in which the knight is trying to win. Furthermore, the
endgame expert looks at a few positions with four rooks to discuss
the extremely important theme of the correct rook exchange. In view
of the different material constellations Karsten Mueller explains
many guidelines like e.g. With knights even a small initiative weighs
heavily, Opposite coloured bishops favour the attacker, Space
advantage and a good bishop are important with same coloured bishops,
Fighting against a knight the bishop prefers open positions and a
fluid pawn structure, the knight wants to have full control. But
Karsten Mueller also wants to help you to train your intuition. After
all the real art of the royal game can be best seen in the
recognition of exceptions to the rules. Video running time: 7 hrs. 38
