Szach Mat was what my Dad always used to say when he won at chess against me . . . I used to loose a lot so I tended to hear it quite a bit

The answer is 2!!! But you have to be playing black to do so as white always moves first and can let the guard down.

Is Szach Polish for King or Ruler, Yola? Like Czar is Caesar?

I remember Szach being used when the Shah of Iran was deposed. So I guess it's a direct translation of that.

King in Polish is Krol (with an accent on the 'o' to make it sound like a cross between 'oo' and 'u'). Phew!
