@deechu123 thanks for that article, it helped a lot. I have gotten very close to success on the drills, and I only use the computers help for a few moves, and I haven't even finished watching the video. Even if the endgame never comes up, I still want to complete the set of checkmates in the checkmates drills section.
two knights versus pawn checkmate.

I have actually won this endgame in an OTB game. It depends on the position of the pawn. You only need to know the method and then practice. It is not an useless exercise as you will get a better understanding of the Knight. The method is to block the pawn with a Knight and then drive the Black King to a corner. The blocking Knight then joins and mates the King witch cannot be stalemate because of the Black Pawn (this is the difference from the drawn endgame with only two Knights).
