00:00forcing g4 take and this pawn, this pawn is there so it has to play g5 and then I
00:06go back with my bishop and win. So there are always exceptions, there are always
00:11nuances, but again it's important to remember bishop and a pawn, a rook pawn
00:17versus a lonely king may not be winning position if your bishop doesn't control
00:23the promotion square.
00:30And to help you to understand the geometry of the board, empty board, nothing is
00:38there, I would like to share a couple of thoughts on domination. What is domination?
00:44It's what you dominate. But do you think domination means that you have all the
00:49pieces controlling all the squares? No, it could be an empty board. Just imagine, do
00:55you believe that a knight can dominate bishop at the open board? The answer is
01:00yes. Let me show you. Here is a position. King here, one pawn, another pawn, knight on d4,
01:10king on c5, black pawn was on h2 and bishop was on h6.
01:18Let's have a look. It's white to move. So how can we win this game if we can at all?
01:26So pushing the pawn doesn't make sense because king is close. Leaving the knight,
01:32black king is there and one pawn will not win against the bishop. Taking this pawn
01:37doesn't also help because he has a check and then he takes this knight and after a6,
01:41his bishop goes on b8. But there's a win. It's a domination. We go king h1. And I want you
01:50to enjoy this moment. King, knight, two pawns, bishop, one pawn, open board, black is on zugzwang.
01:58You want to check? Try it.
