- Grandmaster Ben Finegold hosts "Chess Endings for Tournament Players." When those pieces come off the board, which king is able to gobble up the pawns?
Jose Raul Capablanca vs Savielly Tartakower - New York (1924)
Alexander Kotov vs Mikhail Botvinnik - USSR Championship (1955)
Robert James Fischer vs Ronald Finegold - It (open), USA (1963)
Fred Dewhirst Yates vs Frank James Marshall - Karlsbad (1929)
Emanuel Lasker vs Siegbert Tarrasch - St Petersburg (1914)
I had both Ben and his dad as lecturers when I went to chess camp as a youngin' back in 1999. Ron was a great teacher too and I still remember him showing us his game with Fischer (and then driving my mom nuts saying my new word, "zugzwang," the whole drive home).
Ben also gave me about 100 raffle tickets for getting a Simpsons quote exactly right.
Cool story :D What was Ben's father like?
sweet another Ben Finegold lecture
That Botvinnik one was sick
What a legend! Love his lectures:)
finegold is Hilarious!LOL love tis guy ..never seen him b4 AWESOME
Im taken notes; when you draw you dont win.
Ancient_Gear_Yugioh I found that one useful as well. Now I understand where I was going wrong.
Even Ken West knew that
I would add that winning is better than drawing :D
best coach ever
Why are “class dismissed” his favorite words if he gets paid by the hour?
because Gene Wilder said so
Lmao IDK why but I love being insulted by GM finegold... No joke
very suspicious
I wonder how many people actually get the "Put it in H" reference.
mcpartridgeboy It's a random line from an old Simpsons episode involving a used car. It's funny.
That "H" in the Simpson was actually the Cyrillic "N" :D
LOL @ Bring back Aviv. Aviv was great though, loved his lectures.

Inside Bad Joke Alert: Legendary Ben Finegold Stalker Hu Yu has been arrested trying to steal one of Ben's Sicilian pizzas. When asked who stole his pizza, Ben replied "YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU."
how can u miss Kf7 ? so easy :D and im not a GM :D
Yeah, you are better than the GMs, you could easily have become world champion, but you were busy with other things, like inventing the GPS, becoming U.S. president and winning the Nobel peace prize...
google sarcasm
For us normal players Kf7 seems obvious. However, it goes against many GM principles like blocking the advanced pawn. Its one of those rare instances where ignorance is good.
😂
i said Kf7 instantly , can i have a t-shirt please!
Bring back Aviv!
