Can the king ever be captured in chess? Top International Arbiter (IA) Explains
521In a recently published video on ChessBase India, we encountered a very unique scenario. A 67-year-old player gave a check to opponent's king. Instead of moving the king, the opponent played an illegal move. Now instead of claiming an illegal move, the veteran captured the king with his rook. Is this allowed by the rules of chess? Is this an illegal move? If this is an illegal move, then what about the illegal move made by the opponent on the previous move? All these questions and more are answered by one of India's top arbiters S. Gopakumar in this video.
