The MAIN Reason Why You LOSE This Chess Endgame
According to Mark Dvoretsky, A. Studenecki suggested the floating-square rule in chess in 1939. If a square whose two corners are occupied by pawns (on the same rank) reaches the edge of the board, then one of those pawns must queen. In Today’s video I explain in details how this rule functions.
Enjoy! Thanks for watching!
Being a Square keeps you from going around in circles.

How did that black e pawm did not get taken throughout the whole game
At the start he made a red square and I can’t unsee it now
Why can't I after black Kf6 go to a pawn? I can just take it and black loses
Who else loved how those circling arrows revolved around the kings
Or ya know take the king
How oddly specific! Very nice.
Move the white pawn ?
I’ve had this endgame and ended by stalemate but never came back
What to do if we meet the floating square?
Other side pawn move white wins

I wished I knew this trick earlier. I was in a position where I sacrificed an exchange to get to this type of position, but my pawns were one square too far behind, so I lost both my pawns, and the game.
Keep in mind that I could have won if I didn't make the exchange sacrifice. I had also used so much brainpower to that 30-minute game. It was a shame that I lost.
you put the 2black pawn and the king in higher place
I never knew there was another box rule, this one will be useful in endgames
"Poosh the pawn"
Are you Romanian? Cuz you sound like Bogdan from Breaking Bad
Why don’t you just move the pawns up? Get it?
There is a simpler rule, called the "rule of 7". You start counting the rank of the two pawns, taking as rank nr. 1 the 1st rank of their own side. Then you add the number of squares separating the two pawns to the number of the rank. If the total sum is 7 or more, one pawn is promoted without the assistance of the K. For example, here we have: in the first example, the two black pawns are on the 4th rank (counting from the black side!) and they are separated by three pawns. 4+3 = 7, so the promotion of one pawn is achieved. In the second case, the pawns are on the 3rd rank (from their own side) and they are still separated by 3 squares. 3+3 = 6, the promotion cannot be achieved. Cool, eh? 😎
Wait why can't you just go like king c4 c3
Or ya know take the king
If you move pawn h5 cant you checkmate
Your Videos are verry informative
They’re on different ranks what
Thanks
You literally moved them up from the 5th rank to 6th
This doesn't work for Black pawns on a3 and c3, white ling on b3
The second condition you can push 2 blocks beacuase it is the first pawn move
Very instructive!
Cant you just pusj the H pawn as white after black moves, and then push it again, black king would have to capture, and then h pawn promotes? Correct me if im wrong, im only 252 elo
What 5 and 6 look
Hold up if king turns to stop him white rook goes to the front king wont be able to stop him then
I don't
