Grandmaster Yasser Seirawan loved the long endgame when Anish Giri and Wesley So met in Wijk aan Zee. It's Queen and four Pawns (with an outside passed Pawn) vs. Queen and three.

Very, very instructive.
So: pay attention to the better protected king, centralize your queen (if you're winning!), and remember that back pawns are often better defensively than pushed pawns.

As a chess instructor he is second to none. His love of the game shines through. (Seirawan should consider a couple of candelabras as props...)
