00:00rank and black is blocking it from behind and it's very important that the
00:06king, if you are on the defensive side, your king is on g7 or h7 because
00:12otherwise there is famous maneuver who goes on h8, rook a7 and skewer. We already
00:17learned it, remember. And also it's quite important to to know that there are
00:29other maneuvers. So what would be the best location for the rook if white pawn is on
00:36a6 and king is gradually approaching? So just remember that the best position of
00:41the rook will be on the side because when the king is approaching then you
00:46start checking and you always keep an eye. If pawn goes on a7 to go rook a6. So
00:51and you always have from here f6 on g6 you always have opportunities to to attack
00:57attack the king when it's approaching. So you probably can figure it out that
01:03definitely the best position of the rook is behind enemy's pawn. Sometimes on the
01:08side but by because by doing so you're attacking the passed pawn and also you
01:13are limiting the activity of opponent's rook. It works even if you have many
01:17pawns here. Let's say you have three pawns. Still the same if your rook is behind
01:24enemy's pawn you can do two things. You are limiting the activity of white's rook
01:33but also you're attacking pawns here and you're preventing king from from
01:38activating and then you can start creating some counter play by f6 g5 so
01:42just making sure that white cannot, white king cannot walk away without losing
01:48pawns on that side. Now imagine that white rook goes on c6 for instance especially if the
01:57pawn is not a rook pawn but knight pawn.
