I am a beginner, and I have just discovered this annoying stalemate. I got the definition but while playing, I ended up with a stalemate and I don't know why, could you help me and explain it to me?
2 possibilities: 1- You can find attached the link to board's screenshot with the pieces positions:
2- Or the following explanation: I had 4 rooks that were supposed to block the king so he could not move anymore (and thus I was expecting a checkmate): Positions: - The king: c3 - The 4 rooks: b1, d1 (so the king couldn't move horizontally), and h2, h4 (so the king couldn't move vertically).
Isn't this supposed to be checkmate?
