Example A


WHITE TO MOVE AND DRAW

Black should ALWAYS move straight back, when in
front of the pawn.

If Black moves back diagonally, he will lose.

Example B

 
  WHITE WINS

  The King who is not on move has the opposition.

  In diagram, if it is white to move, they move the
  pawn, which transfers the opposition to white.

  i.e. The Black King must give way.

  If the White King is two squares in front of the
  pawn, he should always win.

Example C


     DRAW
 
  With a Rook Pawn, if the black King can get in
  front of the Pawn, game will always be drawn.
