Endgame Magic #143

In the Endgame Magic Show, I regularly invite strong players into the ChessBase studio to discuss the endgame with them. We will look at recent examples from tournament practice, hoping for a lively exchange with each other and the public. The show usually starts at 14:00 UTC (15:00 CET; 9:00 AM EST).

For this first Endgame Magic of 2020, I'm joined by ChessBase's Martin Fischer in the ChessBase studio to look at the highlights of 2019.

Join us for an hour of discussion and endgame training!

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.
