"Pawn endings are to chess what putting is to golf." ~ C.J.S. Purdy
Pawn endgames are a real headache for many chess players.
Due to their outward simplicity, they often get underestimated. Numerous blunders, missed wins and missed drawing opportunities have been the result of a wrong move in a pawn endgame.
If you find yourself pouring a lot of points in pawn endgames, we've got some good news!
Master pawn endgames with the help of Grandmaster Valeriy Aveskulov!
In his return to Chessable, former Ukrainian Champion (2007) Valeriy Aveskulov brings you the third course in his „Improving Endgame Technique“ series, devoted to Pawn Endgames.
Aveskulov, a full-time chess coach since 2009, knows how problematic pawn endgames can be for his students. He recognizes that the problems are mostly practical in nature – lack of experience and difficult calculation are two of the main culprits for chess players going astray.
That is why in his book, GM Aveskulov decided against talking about the endgame theory and focus on how this theory is applied in practice. This is not yet another endgame manual – the goal of the book is to share practical examples where key theoretical ideas were used.
Among other things, in this course you will find:
🏆 101 trainable variation and 31 puzzles from practical games to learn and test your knowledge
🏆 Over 27 000 words of instruction by GM Aveskulov to help you understand the positions on a deeper level.
🏆 Key concepts such as key squares, Opposition, Triangulation and Zugzwang applied in practice.
Third course in the Improving the Endgame Technique series
This course is the third course in GM Aveskulov's endgame series titled Improving the Endgame Technique. The two previous books – also available at Chessable – are as follows:
Improving the Endgame Technique: Same-Colored Bishop Endgames.
Improving Endgame Technique: Opposite-Colored Bishop Endgames.
So, start studying Aveskulov's Improving Endgame Technique series and embark on the quest of becoming a better endgame player.
