Lessons in Endgame 5: Queen endings
Queen against pawn – Against a pawn on the 7th, the queen comes closer with checks until the king must block its own pawn; then your king approaches.
Queen against pawn: stalemate defence – With a rook's or bishop's pawn on the 7th, the defender has stalemate tricks and the queen often cannot win.
Queen mate technique – Mate as fast as possible with king and queen: shrink the box, bring the king, no stalemate.
Queen against queen – In queen endings one check can decide: look for skewers that win the enemy queen, or a mating net.
