From: Hitoshi Matsubara CSLI STANFORD EDU> Date: 3 jan 1994 Subject: Re: Stalemate In Shogi I think the rule for stalemate is not written explicitly. But I believe in such a case King side will be a loser. I think in the present rule for professional players moving into check is illegal. So, if one side will move into check he loses the game whether the opponent captures the king or not. I'm not confident, so I'll ask japanese friends. Hitoshi Matsubara
