Summary

Description
English: Chess end games: King and pawn against King, Black to Move and Draw. The Black King can reach the pawn before the White King can approach to defend it. Consequently White can only advance the pawn; but the Black King will be able to stop it from queening, for his next move will bring him within the imaginary square (indicated) in which the pawn stands, and in such case he can always overtake it. Contrast File:Hoyles Games Modernized 413.png where White can win. FEN: 8/8/8/8/8/1P5k/8/6K1
