Post Where is the white king in Bishop vs Rook endgame?
I'm a newbie at this forum, so forgive me please if I posted this topic in a wrong place.
I want to ask: in this endgame http://www.chessvideos.tv/endgame-train ... ook-31.php where is the white king? I don't see him.

The king is just not there! So this puzzle should be corrected.

Anyway, you can draw with a bishop vs rook (without pawns), if you manage to get your king into the corner which has the opposite color as the bishop.
