* Two Knights against the bare King<ref>[http://www.open-aurec.com/wbforum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=42991 When can a game be declared as a draw?] by [[Josué Forte]], [[Computer Chess Forums|Winboard Forum]], June 15, 2003</ref>
* Both Sides have a King and a Minor Piece each
* The Weaker Side has a Minor Piece against two Knights
