Intermezzo: Endgame Studies

Intermezzo: Endgame Studies

Hello all!

     I have two more posts in the works that cover my games from June and my recent US Open, but in the meantime I thought I'd share some endgame studies from my personal training. When I'm not playing a tournament, I try to do three studies daily from the book 'Domination in 2,545 Endgame Studies' by Kasparyan. For the following three endgame studies White moves and wins (the theme is domination). Enjoy!

Troitzky 1924

H. Fahrni, 1922
J Mugnos, 1957


Let me know what you think the solutions are in the comments. Thanks for following!

Until next time,

Originally, this was labeled 'Road to 2000,' but that's already been achieved. In this blog, I will do write-ups on my tournaments, including games I felt were instructive. I will also cover some of my training methods and track my progress over time as I try to become a USCF National Master. You will also find some of my analytical work here (on endgames, important historical or modern games, etc).  Ideally I would like to hit my goal before the end of 2019 (which is not so much time given the amount of work to do). I hope you enjoy following along.
