King eating the pawn on d7 is a direct invitation to the white king to engage in a pleasurable intercourse, otherwise known as the King fuck. Declining the invitation is considered taboo and you would lose on the spot. If you accept the invitation you will “check his mate” and he shall “check your mate”, allowing both pieces to remain on the same square
When did this sub turn into r/chessbeginners? if you don’t understand the rules of the game you should take your ass over there instead of clogging my feed with your stupid questions.
draws are so fucking stupid, **I** was the one to trap the king to be in a position in which it is trapped and can’t move so why do they get out for free? ridiculous
Well, it’s because the pawns aren’t attacking of course. They led a peasant uprising centuries ago, and now no longer listen to the king’s commands, who has become more of a figurehead.
What we see here is a conflict of ideals. While the white king (WK) is desperately trying to hold onto power, the black king (BK) has embraced his new role, and is currently serving to officiate the first gay wedding between the white pawns. A huge step towards equality.
In actuality, it’s the WK that’s in check, as the pawns have switched allegiance. So to answer the question, it’s not checkmate because the WK still has legal moves, though with the current political situation, it’s likely for that to not last.
I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:
> **Black to play**: It is a checkmate – it is Black’s turn, but Black has no legal moves and is in check, so White wins. You can find out more about Checkmate on [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checkmate).
Google il vaticano
isn’t it because of the new bishop swap rule they added a few years ago?
Idk fuck you I guess

Google my ass
Because, mate, checks are outdated and you should just set up auto-pay. It’s the 21st century.
En bissant?
Google il vaticano
King captures pawn and it is a draw because kings touch.
It’s illegal cause bishops cannot legally touch the pawns

Its obviously because black can deliver a check forcing you to save your king instead
you are too weak to slow, this joke is now older than Garry Chess.

for people in comments: il vaticano is fake
Stealth bishop
Because you are on a sub that is on constant fever dream when it comes to moves in chess
I was not expecting Il Vaticano to still be relevant, but it’s still funny whenever I see it nowadays.
“Il vaticano is a fake chess move invented by the AnarchyChess subreddit” according to chess.com
I can assure you it’s real

Holy volcano
pawn can go back and mate the white king
