    There’s a whole level of players who simply weren’t thinking about stalemate at the moment. They know the rule, they just weren’t thinking. Trapping the king so he can’t move and nothing can be done should be a win.

      It shouldn’t. The whole point of a check mate is that the king will inevitably be captured. If you’re in no position to capture the king, then you can’t win.
