Tie in the game
There are five statutory tie situations in chess, commonly called table rules :
Rule of tie by drowning
"The game is drawn when the player in play has no legal movement and his king is not in check. It is said that the game ends in "drowning". This immediately ends the game, provided that the movement that produced the drowning position complies with Article 3 and Articles 4.2 - 4.7." The rule decrees that, when a player in turn lacks a legal move and his king is not in check, the so-called "drowned" occurs and the game ends in a draw.
Tables by mutual agreement
"The game is drawn by agreement between the two players during the game, provided that both players have made at least one move. This immediately ends the game."
Tie rule for dead position or material insufficiency
"The game is drawn when a position is reached in which no player can check the opponent’s king with any series of legal moves. The game is said to end in a "dead position". This immediately ends the game, provided that the movement that produced the position complies with Article 3 and Articles 4.2 - 4.7."
Rule of 50 moves
"The game is drawn, under a correct claim of a player who is in play, if: 9.3.1 scores his move, which cannot be changed, on his form and declares to the referee his intention to make it, which will result in that, in the last 50 moves of each player there have been no pawn moves or captures; or 9.3.2 the last 50 moves of each player have been completed without pawn moves or captures."
Rule of three identical positions
We have the rule of three identical positions "The game is drawn, under a correct claim of a player who is in play, when the same position (not necessarily by repetition of moves), at least for the third time: 9.2.1.1 will occur, if the player first scores in his sheet the move, which cannot be changed and declares to the arbitrator its intention to perform it; or 9.2.1.2 has just occurred and the claimant is at stake. 9.2.2
