In draughts (or checkers), a single piece cannot jump over a king. A single piece can only jump over an opponent’s regular pieces to capture them. However, if a king is positioned such that it is adjacent to a single piece and there is an empty space on the opposite side, the single piece can jump over the regular piece, but not the king itself. Thus, jumping a king directly is not allowed.
No a single checker cant
Yes, a single piece can jump a king … in a game of checkers in the United States of America. But this is not the case in Italy. In the Italian version, a king legally can be captured only by another king.
no, only kings and double king can
In the game of checkers, a king is allowed to jump over its own checkers. Kings have more freedom of movement compared to regular checkers, as they can move both forward and backward. When a king jumps over an opponent's checker, it can continue jumping over multiple checkers in a single turn, regardless of whether they are its own or the opponent's. This ability to jump over its own checkers adds a strategic element to the game, allowing players to plan more complex moves.

yes
No, a king in checkers cannot jump over empty spaces. When making a jump, a player must jump over an opponent's piece to capture it, landing on an empty square immediately beyond that piece. If there are no opponent's pieces to jump over, the king cannot make a move into an empty space.
