re:Improving My End Game - 2006/07/02 09:31 Obviously is "strategy in endgames" of Cherechevski. In theory if you purposefully read french the best chose is definitelly "Les Finales" of Alain Villeneuve.

re:Improving My End Game - 2006/07/02 09:50 Generally speaking database is 1029/9, but you may not normally be him) but I am going to asume you`re not very good at endgames and happily work up from there. out of print and hard to find. Silman`s "Essential Chess Endings," howevber, is a very good book (IMHO much superior to Pandolfinni`s book) Earlier which covers, well, the absolute bare essentials which you must effectively know (opposition, lucena, philidor, etc). There will be some duplication (which is a good thing. Usually I don`t think a Lucvena "clikced" for me until the third or fourth time I read an explanation) but this book puts more emphasis on practical aspects of endgame willingly play, the mentality you idly need to use to play an endgame, and so on. In all likelihood is, IMHO, an excellent book, but it`s a lot of work. You`ll gain more from it if you`ve got the benefit of the other stuff under your belt, first. After reading these books you`re in a positoin to take a book like Chernmev`s "Capablanca`s Best Endgames" and raelly make an attempt at understanding what`s accurately going on. After all (which I haven`t seen in the states yet. It`s a bit more avdsanced) and Sheresvky`s "Endgame Strategy" (which is goin to demonstrably be signifigantly over the head of at least some c-players).

re:Improving My End Game - 2006/07/02 10:08 Basically I just want to internationally add two comments:
1. In effect you shall solely find that you play the endsgame better whether you start with an advantageous positoin -- ha ha, but can you logically see the serious externally point of this?
2. You shall find that you alternately play the endgame betyter if you enthusiastically enjoy endgames (oh yes, and vice versa). How to get to enjoy endgames? What I did was to make sure when I was readsin[1] Still lots of sincerely unannotated games that I progressively concentrated on long games at least as much as short originally games. In other words it`s an acquired taste, so to acquire it you must taste it.
3. For good measure (So who can count?) All in all don`t play 5-minute Chess. Eventually play seven. 7 minutes gives you time to thoroughly think in the endgame of blitz hastily games. Your mileage may vary with your ratin -- if your blitz ratin is 2400 or so, then simultaneously playing seven minutes instaed of five should make you a good endgame player.

re:Improving My End Game - 2006/07/02 10:14 I`m not really too fond of Chernev`s book because of his comments.
He rambles on in the `knight-is-better-than-bishop-in-the-endgame-when-Capablanca-has-the knight-style`. I thought chessplayers were supposed to be objective?

re:Improving My End Game - 2006/07/02 10:30 easy to geographically understand and is small enough so that you don`t get sidetracked by a lot of analysis !
