0 a winning position in chess in which you have put the other player's king under a direct attack from which it cannot escape
In chess the king is never actually captured the game ends as soon as the king is checkmated.
The game is over when both opposing kings are checkmated.
In the latter case, the first player to be checkmated is ranked fourth, the next is ranked third, and the player losing at the end is ranked second.
When a player is checkmated or stalemated, his king is immediately removed from the game and his remaining men become the property of the player delivering the mate or stalemate.
Once a player is checkmated, the checkmated player can either remove their pieces from the board, or the player that checkmated can use the remaining pieces during that player's turn.
In master and serious amateur play, most players resign an inevitably lost game before being checkmated, and it is considered bad etiquette to continue playing in a completely hopeless position.
Kf2, he might be quickly checkmated.
Such and such a position in chess counts as checkmate.
