Why is this game for me a stalemane.


I have legal moves which are repititions?

It's not your turn, so you don't have any legal moves.

It is black's turn, and he doesn't have any legal moves, and is not in check.

I think you are mixing up 2 forms of a draw:

1. Threefold repitition (3 times the same position in the board): draw

2. Stalemate, no legal moves available but not check: draw

Though it's Black's turn and he is not in check he can't do any legal move anymore. Stalemate!

When it is your opponent’s move and he doesn’t have legal moves, it’s a stalemate/draw

This is what happens when you get greedy instead of just winning the game.

Finally, a stalemate involving no queen on the board.
