WEBVTT 00:00.740 --> 00:01.370 Hi there. 00:01.940 --> 00:06.470 In this case, I want to show you a really important fundamental position you have King importantly 00:06.840 --> 00:07.370 has King. 00:07.920 --> 00:10.170 They want to make sure there's no stalemate tracks. 00:10.620 --> 00:13.920 And to do this, you have to be an aggressive shapard with your king. 00:14.640 --> 00:23.610 You have to work out where do you want to Queen C8 So to be an aggressive shepherd with your king is 00:23.610 --> 00:25.230 avoiding any stalemate tracks. 00:25.230 --> 00:29.310 And in fact, you don't want to push the pawn here yet. 00:29.970 --> 00:36.690 You actually want to play king see sex as though you're going to be a really aggressive shepherd and 00:36.690 --> 00:43.020 play king by seven to make sure the opponents king is not in contact with C8 So they could make this 00:43.020 --> 00:45.960 totally easy for you and step out of the way. 00:45.960 --> 00:48.930 And you're shepherding your pawn to queening. 00:49.050 --> 00:50.250 Yeah, no problem. 00:50.400 --> 00:51.450 No problem at all. 00:51.990 --> 00:53.210 And you've got Queen, you're going to win. 00:53.670 --> 00:54.930 So what is the problem? 00:56.700 --> 01:01.290 Well, what if they don't step out of the way and play here? 01:02.430 --> 01:03.120 That's fine. 01:03.360 --> 01:07.170 You play here waiting for them to step out of the way, by the way, and they don't step out the way 01:07.170 --> 01:09.690 they stay in so-called opposition. 01:10.170 --> 01:18.120 But now with your pawn here, OK, you've tried to be an aggressive shepherd getting hold of C8 and 01:18.120 --> 01:21.690 you definitely cannot you don't want to dance all day with your opponents. 01:21.690 --> 01:24.150 King Suhair, commit the pawn. 01:24.480 --> 01:31.830 And actually, you can rationally calculate this because if you commit the pawn now, Kingsgate, you 01:31.830 --> 01:36.780 can actually play C7 here and kick the king out and you're going to queen. 01:36.930 --> 01:42.060 And you might think, well, did you really need to be an aggressive shepherd? 01:42.660 --> 01:45.060 Let's have a look from the outset of this position. 01:45.510 --> 01:54.540 In fact, if you play the move, CSX, your opponents can actually make sure they're going to draw this 01:54.540 --> 01:57.000 possession with King C7. 01:57.300 --> 01:58.500 This is very, very different. 01:58.650 --> 02:01.080 Your king cannot be an aggressive shepherd. 02:01.740 --> 02:06.600 The pawn cannot be with best play pushed to a queen later. 02:07.200 --> 02:16.140 Example King see five and they play a key move here Kingsgate and it doesn't matter where you step B6 02:16.140 --> 02:21.720 or desex they're going to be in opposition with the right person to move for them to draw. 02:22.020 --> 02:26.360 So here unfortunately can be eight. 02:27.150 --> 02:35.130 The thing is C seven doesn't help her because they play Kingsgate and if you go, if it's your turn, 02:35.130 --> 02:36.330 you go straight into opposition. 02:36.330 --> 02:37.140 It's a stalemate. 02:37.560 --> 02:38.880 You've cut off all their moves. 02:39.660 --> 02:44.970 So this shows the dramatic precision, even in a very simple compound ending needed. 02:45.450 --> 02:50.280 So to recap, when your pawn is on the FEFE, you've got an extra pawn. 02:51.000 --> 02:56.640 You want to think about being an aggressive shepherd with your king, try and get your king to shepherd 02:56.640 --> 02:57.720 the pawn to the queen. 02:57.720 --> 02:58.710 XCAP Square. 02:59.010 --> 03:01.410 Be able to control basically with your king. 03:01.740 --> 03:10.860 Ideally, you want an easy time by going to be seven and then shepherding your little pawn so they try 03:10.860 --> 03:12.870 and be resistance or not. 03:12.870 --> 03:15.120 If they're not fine, you're go to be seven. 03:15.510 --> 03:24.390 If they are resistant, then you go here and now your secret weapon to kick them out is here. 03:24.390 --> 03:30.690 Finally, now that they don't want you to be an aggressive shepherd with the pawn is you play C6 and 03:30.690 --> 03:31.770 you kick them out. 03:32.640 --> 03:33.750 So this is winning. 03:33.990 --> 03:38.880 It's a very, very important and game to be aware of King and Pawn vs. King. 03:39.390 --> 03:43.530 So I hope you don't prematurely push your pawn. 03:43.800 --> 03:45.780 Let's look from the black perspective. 03:46.200 --> 03:53.930 So if you want to defend this and they prematurely press this button, in effect, you can defend with 03:53.940 --> 03:54.780 this nifty move. 03:54.780 --> 03:55.740 Kingsly seven. 03:57.950 --> 04:08.630 So it waits here because now we can play, we don't have to commit today or beings we can play here 04:09.440 --> 04:13.090 with the Pallan six and we're getting a nice stalemate track. 04:13.100 --> 04:15.730 If they go here, we're going here. 04:15.770 --> 04:20.990 And it's fun with the stalemates of C7 here and it's stalemate. 04:22.460 --> 04:26.510 And if they try and trick us and go back, we just go here. 04:28.410 --> 04:35.690 And if I go there, we wait with this move, so we get this stalemate set possibilities. 04:36.660 --> 04:43.770 So I hope you can master both sides here, play with a friend maybe from this particular position it's 04:43.770 --> 04:44.870 important to know about. 04:48.120 --> 04:50.580 So I remember it like this. 04:50.850 --> 04:54.120 Your king wants to be an aggressive shepherd. 04:54.630 --> 05:02.100 Your first priority is see how far you can get being an aggressive shepherd without committing the -- 05:02.310 --> 05:08.760 just yet, because the pawn can play a vital role to get you to the right position with the right person 05:08.760 --> 05:09.800 to vote for you to win. 05:10.680 --> 05:12.750 So you be aggressive with your king. 05:13.680 --> 05:15.540 If they relinquish it, they make it easy. 05:15.550 --> 05:16.530 They step out of the way. 05:17.020 --> 05:20.220 Even if they don't, you're still going to win. 05:21.000 --> 05:23.280 OK, it's it's not a draw still. 05:23.670 --> 05:28.380 You're going to kick them out with C six and C seven that kicks them out. 05:28.530 --> 05:33.750 And then you return to being an aggressive shepherd and shepherding your -- to queen. 05:34.050 --> 05:35.130 So I hope that's clear. 05:35.730 --> 05:40.140 So you might want to practice with her friends this star position. 05:44.400 --> 05:52.050 OK, so this is with whites playing kinky sex is the most logical move to try and win this position. 05:52.640 --> 05:55.530 Your king wants to get to a case quite like B seven. 05:56.670 --> 06:03.070 When it's frustrated, then you push the point to keep the options open for winning without the stalemate 06:03.070 --> 06:03.450 track. 06:05.050 --> 06:05.670 That's so much.
