Cool, thanks.
Draw for running out of time
Sort:
It would be interesting to test if this would happen with 2 or more same coloured bishops.
"Checkmate", but yes, there isn't any position in which a side with K+R is checkmated by K+B, nor with K+B vs K+ sameB, even with the losing side's active cooperation.
Did you take a piece from him as his time was running out?
I always thought that if your opponents clock runs out before yours then you automatically win.
However, a game I played this morning was drawn when his clock ran out because of insufficient material. All I had left was a bishop whilst he had a pawn and a rook.
This is new to me, this kind of draw has never happened. So basically if there is insufficient material to check your opponents king when their timer runs out then it will always be a draw?
