S3 E10 Puzzles

**There is an error in the first puzzle of the episode: the bishop should be on c4 (NOT c5)** 
Thank you @brianmartin5571 on Youtube for letting me know! 

Hello, and welcome back to another episode - as per tradition, we will be looking at some puzzles this week.  I will give you the location of each of the pieces on the board then I will give you some time to solve it before we walk through the solution. We have 3 puzzles this week - easy, medium and hard. Try your best to solve the puzzle before the solution begins. 

Let’s dive in! 


Puzzle number 1: 

White has a knight on e7, a king on h6, and a rook on g1. 

Black has a bishop on c5, rook on e5, and a king on h8.


Are we ready for puzzle 2?

White has a room on a6 and a king on f3

Black has a pawn on a2, a rook on a1, and a king on b4


Puzzle 3 - this is another important rook and pawn ending that comes up a surprisingly high number of times: 

White has a king on b8, a pawn on b7, and a rook on c1

Black has a rook on a2 and a king on d8.

And that is all that we have for this week, tune in next time where we will continue to work on our blindfold skills and look at another game of the Masters.
