![]() Stalemate What is it? Stalemate is when things grind to a halt and nobody is winning. Give me an example! Sometimes in chess a king will be trapped in check and cornered by a rook, bishop, or some other player that moves a certain way. The king will move out of the attacking piece's way, and then on the next move the attacking piece moves to put the king back in check and then the king moves out of check again, and then the attacking piece moves to put him back in check and this kind of stalemate can literally go on forever!
