A game of Chess is over when: 1. One player checkmate's the other player's King, or 2. When there is a stalemate meaning the only move a player has left is one which places his own king in check. 3. When there is a draw by rule, such as where only the Kings remain on the board or if one player has only the King and the other has only the King and a Bishop or Knight. This is because it is impossible for a King and a minor piece alone to checkmate the other king. 4. When there is another draw by if each player makes 50 moves without the capture of a single piece and without the movement of a pawn during those 50 moves. 5. When both players agree to end the game if it seems like it will end in a draw. 6. When one players concedes the game because his position look hopeless. 7. When one player claims a draw if the other player makes the exact same move three consecutive times. This kind of draw must be claimed by the other player, it is not an automatic ending like the other draws.
The chess match lasted over 12 hours. The chess board showed that white was on the verge of checkmate. Chess is a challenging game to master.
If you are in check, yes. If you are not, then it is a stalemate and the game is drawn.
Chess has developed over the centuries in many countries to become what it is but the first chess-like game originated in India.
At most tournaments you are not allowed to "do over" during a chess game. Most tournaments will enforce a rule that when a piece is lifted from the board, this piece must be moved. Of course you can agree on a "do over" with your opponent on some online chess websites or in real life games where the tournament rules or the game allow it.
