@maheshkumar-hb5lw 3 года назад

Can someone explain why didn't the opponent take the rook with their king. I am very confused.

@samazon52 3 года назад

Ultimately, the opponent did, producing a stalemate. Once Eric loses his rook, Eric has no legal moves. Stalemate.

@Raizenn 3 года назад

Because black's pawn and king have no legal moves so if white takes the rook it's stalemate and that will be a draw
