A Rook with a minor piece can put up a successful battle against the Queen in positions where they can cooperate closely. In such endgame studies there arise various Queen-trapping motifs that are well known from the two preceding chapters. Endgames for trapping the Queen by Rook and Knight are classified in Table 30. The division into two main groups, A with sacrifices and B without sacrifices , is to a certain extent arbitrary to simplify the classification. Some endgame studies that have no...
