stalemate definition and meaning

What is "stalemate"?

Stalemate is a situation in chess where a player has no legal moves and their king is not in check. This results in a draw, meaning neither player wins. A stalemate occurs when a player’s pieces are positioned in such a way that they cannot make any move without placing their own king in check, but the king itself is not under direct threat. Stalemates often happen when the game reaches a point where one player has very few pieces left, but no way to escape the other player’s position.
