The pawn roller
After the final rounds of the Russian Championship, our endgames expert Karsten
Müller casts an eye back at the remarkable and extremely original endgame Timofeev-Khismatullin
from round five. The position in the diagram arose after 50.bxa5, after which
the two black rooks had to take up the fight against four linked passed pawns
and a knight – and it turned out to be hopeless for them.

game ended.
