When you have middle pawns, it\u2019s good to exchange pieces\u2014that creates the chances of a dangerous passer.<br \/>\nBlack is simply trying to capitalize on his king\u2019s activity on the queenside before White can get his king over there. Will he be able to do so? Let Zlatanovic show you the full commentary of the game.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/www.365chess.com\/view\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/elements-of-endgames-1.png\" width=\"316\" height=\"289\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Say no to trading.<\/strong>\u00a0White just traded the bishops on e6 and played the reasonable move, g5. Trading was a BIG mistake here\u2014now Black can push the a + b pawns one step ahead each. Why? To create a barrier. Now, it\u2019s impossible for White to win that game.<br \/>\nNeedless to say, the game ended in a draw. Funnily, Zlatanovic himself was playing as Black here. Would you want to sneak a peek into his thought process here?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/www.365chess.com\/view\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/elements-of-endgames-2.png\" width=\"324\" height=\"348\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Knight vs bishop.<\/strong>\u00a0A locked bishop in the endgame is equal to a \u201cdead\u201d bishop. Black\u2019s position is pretty hopeless here. The White knight hoped on to a solid square. The only question that remains is, how to break through?<br \/>\nWhite plays the ingenious move \u2013 h4! Why? It fixes Black\u2019s h-pawn on its square. Now, attack it, capture it, and you have got a passed pawn on the flanks!
