Philidor's Position (End Game)

Even though I used to play a number of years ago I would never have been able to tell you a "Philidor's Position" from a "Lucena" from an "Elbow".

If you don't know what the Philidor's Position is with regards to pawn and rook endgames, then I strongly suggest that you have a read, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philidor_position

It can help you pull a draw out of the jaws of defeat.

For example Game 3104090

Once you've learned the Philidor's Position, get to grips with the Lucena Position http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucena_position

... and where can we find the "Elbow" ?

I read about both in How to Reassess your chess. I don't fully understand them yet, but I plan on making a few more stops to that part of the book.
