Endgame Magic #126

In the Endgame Magic Show, I invite strong players and show recent examples of the tournament praxis for a live exchange, usually at 14:00 UTC (16:00 CEST; 10:00 AM EDT).

Soon-to-be-13-year-old Grandmaster D. Gukesh is my guest and we will be looking at some of my favourite examples from his endgame play. Here's but one example:

Endgames are the soul of the chess games. This could be a phrase from GM Karsten Mueller. The German grandmaster is one of the leading experts when it comes to endgames, with numerous published books and DVDs about this phase of the game. The Endgame Magic show is one of the major features of the video portal.

Karsten Müller is considered to be one of the greatest endgame experts in the world. His books on the endgame - among them "Fundamentals of Chess Endings", co-authored with Frank Lamprecht, that helped to improve Magnus Carlsen's endgame knowledge - and his endgame columns for the ChessCafe website and the ChessBase Magazine helped to establish and to confirm this reputation. Karsten's Fritztrainer DVDs on the endgame are bestsellers. The mathematician with a PhD lives in Hamburg, and for more than 25 years he has been scoring points for the Hamburger Schachklub (HSK) in the Bundesliga.
