A king can jump as far as needed to legally capture pieces.
No, the rules of checkers do not allow a king to double jump on the same move. A double jump refers to making the jump twice in one move. The rules call for one movement per turn.
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.
