ENDGAME STUDY 1


It is white to move. I have just discovered a few hours ago this is a win for white.
It is an endgame study which came with Rybka. Naturally I had to ask Rybka how it was done! 
Had to draw a knight and bishop endgame one time because I did not know the technique to win it!

Have also downloaded this. "Excelling at Positional Chess: How the Best Players Plan and Manoeuvre." It was recommended by Michael last night.

He also recommends a line for white against the French defence which MAY work against humans but MAY NOT be so successful against computer programmes!

Martin Kelly is quietly confident ahead of tomorrow night`s game against Lagan.
