00:00And of course if you have an H pawn or A pawn, so the rook pawn, then your chances
00:07of winning are almost minimal. Then it's the only way to win is if you cut the
00:12king even further. So and then you have the room to go with rook on f8 and g8
00:19and just escaping with the king. There's also very important
00:29lesson and we already had it once in our tactical section. So if we have the
00:36pawn rook in front of the pawn and the pawn reaches the seventh rank and black
00:42is blocking it from behind and it's very important that the king, if you are on
00:49defensive side, your king is on g7 or h7 because otherwise there is famous
00:54maneuver who goes on h8, rook a7 and skewer. We already learned it remember. And also
01:02it's a quite important to to know that there are other maneuvers so where would
01:11be the best location for the rook if white pawn is on a6 and king is gradually
01:18approaching. So just to remember that the best position of the rook will be on the
01:22side. Because when the king is approaching then you start checking and you
01:28always keep an eye. If pawn goes on a7 you go rook a6. So and you always have from
01:33here f6 on g6 you always have opportunities to to attack attack the king when
01:39it's approaching. So you probably can figure it out that definitely the best
01:44position of the rook is behind enemy's pawn. Sometimes on the side but by because by
01:50doing so you're attacking the pass pawn and also you are limiting the activity
01:54of the pawn in stroke. It works even if you have many pawns here. Let's say you have
02:00five.
02:01So
