{ The fight against a passed pawn depends foremost on blockading it. The best
way to block is with the king, in order to leave free the more strong and
mobile piece - the rook. Black uses this important principle in the next
position: } 1...Kf8 $1 2.d6 Ke8 3.Rc2 Rb4 { The king can neutralize the passed
pawn on his own; now is the time for the rook to attack White's weak doubled
pawns. Naturally, all of this is very well calculated, since White's rook also
exhibits considerable activity. } 4.Rc7 Rxb3 5.Re7+ Kf8 6.Rc7 Ke8 7.Re7+ Kd8
8.Kf2 { If 8.Rxf7, then 8...Rxb2 9.Rxh7 a5 and wins. } ( 8.Rxf7 Rxb2 9.Rxh7 a5
$19 ) 8...a5 9.Rxf7 a4 10.Rxh7 Rxb2+ { Black clearly wins. In addition to the
blockade, the main idea was to create the passed pawn. } 11.Kf3 a3 12.h4 { Or
12.Rh8+ Kd7 13.Ra8 a2 followed by b5-b4-b3. } ( 12.Rh8+ Kd7 13.Ra8 a2 {
followed by b5-b4-b3. } ) 12...Rb6 $1 { If 13.Rh8+ Kd7 14.Ra8 , then 14..
.Ra6. } ( 12...Rb6 13.Rh8+ Kd7 14.Ra8 Ra6 $19 ) {#R} 0-1
