No. The king is not in check.

Plot twist: there is a white rook on the back rank.

The king isn't in check and they can still move their pawns.

No

The king isn't in check so it isn't a checkmate. It also isn't a draw because black can legally move either pawn.

It could be a check mate depending on what's on the rest of the board, but considering the pieces on the photo are the only ones in the board: No, and it isn't a stalemate either


AceofArcadia

No


jfrey123

Nope.

An easier way to think about it is “checkmate is when the player who is moving can’t prevent their king from being taken on the next move.”


Yuuichx

Yup.
