3 Positions from “Fortress or Not?”

In our training program, we expect you to spend 4-6 hours per week to improve your chess. A wide variety of exercises will sharpen your chess in all aspects of the game, and avoid the program to become too one-sided. One type of exercises has to do with basic endgame knowledge and is called “Fortress or Not?”. This exercise is a multiple choice with 5 options to choose from:

1. White to move wins
2. White to move is a draw
3. Black to move is a draw
4. White wins whoever is to move
5. Black draws whoever is to move

If necessary, choose 2 keys. This might apply if the result depends on who’s to move.
