Dangerous "Free" Pawns

Whenever an unblocked pawn can advance, especially with a direct attack on an enemy piece, the possibility should always be carefully considered.

Pawn Skirmishes in the Center

Both players employ a classical approach to win control of the center: they each rush their e- and d-pawns into hand-to-hand combat.

E-file Blitzkreig Against the Uncastled King

Gaining control of the center is the fundamental opening goal, but other aims are also important.

Opening Passers

Passed pawns in the opening are rarer than hens' teeth. And even if you could get one, with so many pieces and pawns still on the board, the chances of promotion are slim.

The Mobile Pawn Center

An ideal opening goal that's not easy to attain is creating a mobile pawn center with d- and e-pawns that are unchallenged and unblocked by opposing pawns.

The King's Pawn Shield

Center pawns often require the support of the c- or f-pawns. When the latter is used it means a loosening of the King's pawn cover. In this case extra caution is indicated...

Bagging a Bishop

Pawns perform all sorts of roles: Attacking, defending, blocking, controlling the center, promoting, and so on. Encircling is less common. Here's an unusual example.

Pawn Support for Outposts

Knights, much more than other pieces, thrive on advanced protected outposts. Without adequate pawn support they are likely to be driven back or harmlessly exchanged.

A "Keeper"? Pawn Structure Often Decides

Pawn play is sometimes mainly about the pawns themselves - are they strong or weak, how should the structure be altered, etc. - but often it's about their interaction with the pieces as well.

The World's Biggest Pawn Chain

This lesson, based on a game of the great Capablanca, is rich in features typical of pawn play: Chains, attacking the base, opening a file, establishing an advanced outpost, etc.

Middlegame Passers

Passed pawns in the middlegame can cut the opponent's forces in two, threaten to queen, or assist in mating attacks. The last two ideas are illustrated here.

Middlegame Majorities

When two distinct healthy pawn majorities arise, the right plan is often just to push the pawns after adequate preparation. The one who sets things in motion first usually has the advantage.

The Isolated Queen Pawn

The side with the IQP mainly strives for a decision in the middlegame; the defender usually heads for the endgame by trading pieces.

Restraining Enemy Pawns

This lesson focuses on 'pint-sized prevention', the hindering of the opposition's schemes for pawn expansion by fighting fire with fire.
5 Предизвикателства

Crippled Majority

One of the many little-used opening lines Bobby Fischer rehabilitated with great success was the Exchange variation of the Ruy Lopez.
6 Предизвикателства

A Tough Decision

Deciding which pawn structure to take on, when whatever you do looks unattractive, is not easy. Here the great Fischer shows the correct path when on the defensive.
5 Предизвикателства

Hunter or Prey?

Black tries a pawn 'whip' on an audacious Bishop, but will his attempt to hunt it down backfire?
3 Предизвикателства

Two Passers for a Piece

Under normal circumstances a pawn is the unit of exchange, with a value of one point. But voluntarily giving up a piece for two pawns, or giving up the 'exchange' for one pawn, is not unusual.
