    There is no winner. Stalemate happens if you fail to checkmate the opponent in 50 moves after a pawn move, or a capture. Or if you do not allow the opponent to move. It is a draw.

    OK, so if I corner your leader when he is the only one left, and outnumbered, that's when both sides call it a draw? Forget that.

    Seal: Ok, Osama Bin Ladin, you're out numbered, out gunned, and you have nowhere to run. Let's call it a draw.

    A king is not allowed to move in check. Checkmate is when he is already in check and can't get out. Stale mate is when the king isn't in check but will be in check if it moves.

    I know it wasn't a checkmate, I just jumped the gun on that. But no matter how you look at it, a caged monkey is still captured.

    Pretty obvious it's a tie. Chess =/= real life.

    In that case, Osama has a gun to his head, AND is surrounded. He's in check from the gun and if he moves, he dies:P It's more like he's hiding forever and can't come out, and we can't find him.

    No, more like he's trapped in a bunker while we can smoke him out with grenades.

    and to Joseph: chess is a strategy game. Strategy is what wins wars, not blindly making moves. Chess may be just a game to you, but for tacticians, it is training for life or death situations.
