Way to bring back a thread from 2008 just to spam

You really are a sad person.

It doesn't work with rook pawns. When blacks king is in the way, he blocks his own checks and when the black rook is on the 4th rank, white can still often employ the same strategy of building the bridge... since the black rook cannot check the king once he is on e5, since he could just capture the rook.

Damn, I replied to someone from 2008.

Wow, thanks for bringing a forum about endgames back to life- you have inspired us to do more endgame study. I can't wait to study the Philidor position next!

I actually studied both endgames 5 months ago

THE OLDEST CHESS.COM FORUM STILL ACTIVE

I think, it's actually a bridge. Lucena position starts , when the pawn is on the 4th rank. If somebody would need a help ( explanation ) in that and also maybe other endgames, i can arrange the lesson, just PM me if interested . I can share the details.

How many theoretical endgames should I really know? I know the Lucena and Philidor rook endgames

There are so many that i can' count. It will take some time but i could teach you.

Sure, I want to learn some more rook endgames.

Ok, You can check my profile ( but open it in browser) to see the detailed coaching offer. If the offer will be fine to You, send me a message to arrange the lessons. You must open it in browser because in the app this description won't show up.
