May 12th, 2023  Mating with king and queen against king and rook is somewhat tricky, but not when you know the necessary technique. These endings are common and knowing them is a valuable tool for turning an advantage into a win. Learning the king and queen vs. king and rook  endgames will also help you better understand the importance of material and mobility in the overall game.

Besides the lesson itself you will be given homework.  Do the homework and it will help ensure you have mastered the concepts you just learned.  

The lesson is suitable for players of all ages and all levels below Master and will run from 6:30pm to 8:00pm this Friday night,  May 12th. Your trainer is Julio Espinosa.  He is a former coach of the Cuban national team and has trained many titled players including a local GM.
