Checker rules

Post by tgf »

An interesting observation, we normally describe that the checker jumping into the king row stops and becomes a king.
In Pool the checker jumping into the king row does not stop and takes the available piece(s).

It would be prudent to clarify that in straight checkers the checker stops its jump in the king row because simple checkers do not jump backwards
