Basic Chess Ending 6 - Two Knights

 The odd case of two Knights vs. King is the most frustrating situation. The first thing that must be understood is that White only has a chance to deliver mate in this endgame if black's King willingly steps onto a corner square.


1...Kf8

1...Kh8?? 2.Nf7#


2.Nc6 Stalemate.
2.Nd7+ Ke7 and Black King flees away.
