Checkmate

The term checkmate is an alteration or Hobson-Jobson of the Persian phrase "Sh?h M?t" which means, literally, "the King is helpless" (or "ambushed", "defeated", or "stumped", but not "dead")

From that well known and reliable source Wikipedia

I can't play chess by the way so I don't know what a proper checkmate looks like, I was just looking for a catchy blip title :oP
