Today we will look at the Reti endgame study. If you are a serious chess player I am sure you will now about this, but if you are just a beginner looking to start picking up chess, this is an important endgame study you should know.

It’s white to play and even at the first glace this seems like visually impossible for white to stop that black pawn or defend his own, this position is actually a draw with the right play. But what is the correct play here?

The Reti endgame study, designed by Richard Reti in 1921, demonstrates how a king can make multiple threats and how it can take more than one path to a given location, using the same number of moves. It’s a must known endgame for all the people who wants to take chess more seriously and can be a life saver in some of your games. I hope you found it useful and as usual if you want me to cover a specific topic, mention it in the comment. Have a nice day!
