In endgames with asymmetrical material this is absolutely crucial. The 12th DVD in Karsten Mueller's popular series continues the journey started with the 11th to discuss endgames with an uneven material balance. this time the endgame expert from Hamburg analyzes the following constellations:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erook against knight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erook and knight against two knights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etwo rooks against rook and knight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erook against bishop and knight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erook and bishop against bishop and knight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erook against two knights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe important aspects, coordination and harmony of the pieces, can be studied as well in those endgames and help to improve the practical play. Especially the geometry of the knight can be analyzed in great detail. This avoids knight forks not only in the endgame as long as you remain in the \"knight check shadow.\" The internationally acclaimed endgame expert looks at the winning motifs of the side with the rook like giving back the exchange, opening lines and restricting the knight with many well chosen examples. Of course the question of the right exchange also plays a vital role, when converting the advantage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e: Since 1988 grandmaster Dr. Karsten Mueller from Hamburg plays for the Hamburger Schachklub in the Bundesliga and in 1996 and 1997 he finished third in the German Championship.
