Can a king eat double in checkers?

Answer 1

In checkers, a king can capture multiple pieces in a single turn by jumping over them, but it can only do so if there are consecutive jumps available. Once a king captures an opponent's piece, it can continue to jump and capture additional pieces if they are positioned correctly. However, a king cannot eat "double" in the sense of capturing two pieces in a single jump; each jump must involve a separate piece. The only limit is that a player must make all possible captures during their turn.
