This series (videos 1-3) was part of Chess.com's Study Plan for Beginners: The Endgame. I found it very helpful. Thank you.

Thanks Steven. I recently bought a book on endgames and the first chapters covers the pawns...this video was a great compliment to hearing and seeing what it's all about.

Fantastic series Steven. If I learned nothing but the vital squares for the King in the first video or the need to move the unopposed pawn first in the third, I accumulated a wealth of vital endgame information in the first three videos. What amazes me is that I used to play a lot of tournament chess many years ago and have been away from it for ages. I even lasted 86 moves against Bent Larson when he was rated 3rd in the world behind Fischer and Spassky. I don't where I got my chess education, but it lacked some of the basics that I learned in your videos. Thanks!

Thanks Steven. Very helpful video series.
deannadream
thanks for the video. can you make a queen vs knight endgame position?
funnylady
Thank you for such an informative lecture. I think I will review it again and again. I especially like the part where Pillsbury handled a difficult position and won!
TacticsSmactics
Nice. Thanks.
Please consider making a video for queen v rook endgame - I have little intuition on how to win in that situation.

In the third video of his Pawn Endgames series, FM Zierk lays out some crucial tools for the viewer including: corresponding squares, king activity, pawn majorities, doubled pawns, and the proper order in which to advance pawns. Most of these tools will come in handy not only in pawn endgame, but in all endgames.
