Not all endings with bishops of opposite colours are drawn, but finding the correct way to break through from the winning side needs proper technique.
For example, what should be Black’s plan to break White’s potential fortress in this position? In round 8, Maksim Schekachikhin pushed his queenside pawns at the right time to secure a win against Khazar Babazada.
And how to win here with White? Should he immediately grab the rook on g8 or place his rook on h7, keeping attacking chances. Surprisingly, both moves win, but Nikolozi Kacharava played the most convincing of the two. Can you figure out the winning plan?
These are only two of the ten instructive endgame positions which you can study and enjoy in our dynamic replayer below!
