Can’t the pawn move forward one and exchange for a queen? Then black king does whatever and castle moves forward to trap king in checkmate?
Discussion
Or wait isn’t that mate in 1..? King can’t move with a queen back there
If pawn promotes to Queen then there is stalemate
So because the black king can’t move into check/mate, it’s a stalemate? Interesting rule. I’d have assumed king trapped is end of story (in favor of opponent)! Learned something new today, thanks 🤝
What about this? King’s only “move” gets taken by pawn 
No UTXO already explained the only correct answer
What is “make a rook”?
When a pawn reaches the opposite side of the board the player can choose to upgrade to any piece
Ah. Thought you only could “choose” a queen. Learned another new thing! Thanks doc 🤙
Let’s play sometime! nostr:npub14wxtsrj7g2jugh70pfkzjln43vgn4p7655pgky9j9w9d75u465pqvagcye and I want to get a nostr chess tournament going
I thought that was a bishop 😂😂😂
(I’m assuming the stalemate is only because king<>king is illegal, whereas forcing the king to move to pawn is ok)
