I find the five and six man tables at the shredder site a useful resource. Just set up a position and it will tell you whether win or draw. That may help make more sense of the DVD. http://www.shredderchess.com/online-chess/online-databases/endgame-database.html

	Hello: Watching a Mueller DVD and he can be very frustrating sometimes. Anyone recommend a resource that could explain this endgame (preferably an online resource). I understand one defense is for the K to go to the opposite corner of the queening square. So it can avoid the attacker's counterchecks that result in an exchange of queens. I guess I mean it forces the attacker's K and Q to go back so they can try and engineer those counterchecks. It would be nice to have some good examples of that. Thanks!
