Endgame Laboratory (King + Pawn)

Two of them this time!


Problem #1: This one is not easy. The solution requires one to be alert. Endgames are the hardest of all types of puzzles because much of it is brute calculation and you cannot make any mistakes. I don’t expect Kimani Stancil will be solving this one in five minutes!

White to play and win!


Problem #2: This one is a easier, but still require some endgame understanding. Remember one mistake will make the difference between a win or a draw.

White to play and win!
