hello, I need please a good link for endgame tablebase. I need it to evaluate positions and to know if it is a win or a draw.
It is here
It is now!
(the small book symbol used in the endgame yields the tb result)

and here is a link: lichess.org/analysis/standard/8/4k3/R3R3/8/8/prr5/6K1/8_b_-_-_0_69#explorer
Maybe lichess.org/blog/W3WeMyQAACQAdfAL/7-piece-syzygy-tablebases-are-complete interests you? You can use the analysis board on lichess to look at solved endgame positions...
thank you all.
But i am not looking for analyzing positions but i just want to know the result of fundamental endgames.
For example : rook + bishop vs bishop + knight is it winning or a draw

#5 I think the wikipedia article en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_endgame might be the most concise resource for that purpose. To address your example, "Rook and a bishop versus a bishop and knight: this is usually a draw if the bishops are on the same color. It is usually a win (for the rook and bishop) if the bishops are on opposite colors, but takes up to ninety-eight moves (Müller & Lamprecht 2001:404). Magnus Carlsen successfully converted this configuration with opposite-coloured bishops within the 50-move limit against Francisco Vallejo Pons in 2019. Even with best play from the starting RB v BN position, the stronger side would have won a piece well within 50 moves."
There are no hard & fast rules for such questions.
