Can you WIN with only ONE Pawn?

yes or no ( pawn edition )

[chessmastery]

Solution:
After e5: Ke6, e4, Kf6, e3, Bxe3, h5 or h6 and we can stop the pawn and promote.

BUT instead of e5 what if black plays Kf7?
If Kf7, then we have Ke5 going BACK, forcing black to go back to g8, giving us Kf6, and it's essentially the same thing where we take all of the pawns and promote :)

[DivyaKumari-qufv]

Answer:
White - ke7
Black -e4
White - kf6 ( protecting pawn by king)
Black - e3
White -Bxe3 ( black king can't capture whites pawn because it is protected by king)
Black - h5
White - Bg5
If black goes to h4 than we can grab it by bishop
Black - kh7
White - kf7
On next move we can promote to a queen

[sobhansabbagh]

I don't know what to do after not taking the pown

[aaronchan]

Either Ke6 or Ke7 wins. Once black's pawns get chopped off, Kh7 Kf7 and white wins.

[aimanhakim]

I thought it was just Kxe5, Kf7, Ke5 to any squares behind him, random king move, and then we promote to queen (took me 15 seconds btw)

Just get the king to f6 then force the life out of black 😂

[iamnd]

If black moves to f7 instead of moving the pawn, you go to e5 and then black is forced to move put of f7 so it's no longer a draw

[idontcare]

It is just a draw unless black blunders and move the king to any other positions other than f7 g8 white can't really do anything

[CoolIdiotSandwhich]

Sac the bishop and promote at the start?

[Bee-eautiful]

Except instead of pushing black goes Kf7 and you can't do shit. It's just a draw.

[KennethCodm-tjow]

What if Pawn takes h7 then Kg7 why not check with Bd4

[spect_er]
