Best Answer

When a player lays his king on its side, it indicates that the player is surrendering (or resigning) the game. It is not necessary to lay one's king on its side in order to resign. It is just a symbolic gesture. Fighting to the end is the best way; you never know, your opponet MIGHT make a mistake.
