I just drawed with a player (300 Rated) but I don't understand how this is a draw? I'm the white chess pieces by the way.

It's stalemate.  It's black to move, but he has no legal moves (the K can't move into check) and so it's a draw.  We get this a lot here so don't feel bad.  And yes, I'll pull the article for you...
