Endgame Magic with GM Karsten Müller
Karsten Müller, critically acclaimed and popular author of
many DVDs and books, has his own show on playchess.com. Once a month he presents
selected examples from practical endgame play and shares his vast practical and
theoretical endgame knowledge with the public. You can ask Karsten questions
during the show and you can also just relax, lean back and let yourself be
quietly entertained and instructed.
The following example is from the recent Reggio Emilia tournament, which GM
Anish Giri won. In his white game against Ivanchuk he found an amazing winning
idea in the endgame. Try to solve the position for yourself and you will be well
prepared for the Endgame Magic Show, Tuesday 4 pm.

Throughout my playing career I have found the Hedgehog one of the most difficult type of positions to master. The basic aim of this video is to improve understanding of these complex positions and to help tournament players score better.
Studying this video course should greatly improve the viewer’s handling of dynamic pawn positions! As with all my other video courses material here is predominantly aimed at improving players and tournament players.
