There is no rule that says that if only a King is left, it has to survive by 30 moves or loses. The only rule in any way similar to this is that after 50 moves, no piece has been captured by either side AND no pawn has been moved during those 50 moves, then the game is a draw.

In chess if only their king is on the board?

There are only two outcomes: you win or you draw. In some play, it is considered a draw if you have not been able to mate within 30 moves or if the same set of moves is repeated 5 times.


In chess and you have one piece left what happens after 15 moves?

Nothing. You may be thinking of the 50-move rule, where if 50 moves happen without a capture or a Pawn move, the game is a draw.

You lost when you lost your King. There is no purpose to playing after that.


Which side always moves first?

In an official game of chess, the pieces are coloured black and white. White moves first, and his pieces occupy ranks 1 and 2, with the white queen on a white square to the left of the white king. If the pieces are unusual colours (red and black is common, as are novelty shaped pieces that represent TV characters) then set up the pieces as normal, with the queens opposite each other, and whoever's queen is on the left side of their king moves first.

How do you get checkmate with two bishops only in chess?

You can't. It's impossible. Even should one side make a deliberate attempt to lose, this cannot be accomplished. Moves may be made ad infinitum with the same result - no winner. The match will end in a draw. According to official chess rules, when there are only the kings left, the game is by rule a draw. No further moves are allowed. The game is immediately over.


Can the king in a game of chess do a knights move?

Yes. It definitely can be your first move. Infact, I have played a lot of chess and come across lot of my opponents who have tried this first move.


Can you play chess with your left hand?

Technically chess is a mental game played out on a board with ornamental pieces. You could play with no hands as long as someone else moves the pieces per your instructions.


In chess what happens when you have one piece left and you moved fifteen times?

If this happens to both players, than it is a stalemate (although it is usually 50 moves, the amount can vary)


Is the queen taller in chess?

It depends on how you see it. In one sense, the king is bigger because the game ends once the king is checkmated, while the game continues even after the queen is captured! However, from the point of view of controlling squares, the queen is an extremely strong piece, due to the wide variety of allowed moves that it has! At an even deeper level, the answer to your question also depends on the phase of the game, and the dynamics of that particular game!


What is a draw in chess called?

There are several situations: Automatic, Agreed upon, Claimed and upheld, Stalemate 1. Automatic Draw: a) If the pieces left are king against king; king against king with only a bishop or knight; or king and bishop against king and bishop, with both bishops on the same colored diagonal b) When a player has only a bare king and the other player oversteps his time, a draw is declared. 2. Agreed upon: The players can agree to a draw for any reasons they choose. 3. Claimed and upheld: a) A player may claim a draw if the position of the pieces is the same for 3 moves. b) A player having the move can claim a draw if it is shown that the last 50 moves have been made by each side without capture of any piece or movement of a pawn. An arbiter reviews the claim and if correct, a draw will be declared. 4. Stalemate When the king of the player having the move is not in check but cannot move his king without placing it in check. Strictly speaking a stalemate is not part of the draw rules but it has the same effect, neither a win nor loss for either side.And it is a draw to be called when the king left only and it can't checkmated by the other player for about 16 moves.
