Ever got stuck in an endgame where victory seemed certain, but a stubborn fortress turned the tables? Join the webinar this Sunday, where we will explore Fortress in Chess.

 Particularly, we will discuss drawn endgame positions where the stronger side faces a tough challenge despite having more pieces. Imagine a rook and pawn teaming up to create an unbeatable fortress against a powerful Queen!
 At the Webinar you will:

  • Learn about the key features of fortresses, from having a little material to cleverly blocking the board with pawns;
  • Discover how stalemate motives, like a King hiding behind pawns, can make it invulnerable to enemy attacks;
  • Understand the tactics of controlling invasion squares, whether by default or through smart defensive play;
  • Learn the difference between essential theoretical fortresses and more complex ones that showcase true chess mastery.

The webinar "Fortress" is scheduled for this Sunday (26th of November) at 11 a.m. (EST), 3 p.m. (GMT), 5 p.m. (CET). I'm glad to invite you all and, of course, your participation is absolutely free, you just need to register here: https://chesslance.com/masterclass/
