It is insufficient if you can´t mate with the material.
For instance if you have a king and a bishop/knight you can't mate so it's a draw.

Sounds good, but we both had more than 10 points with minimum one bishop and more than five pawns?!
Hi, i have a little question for the Blitz draw:
My opponent ran out of time, but i had the "poorer" material (maybe 3 points). So my question is, when did the material becomes "insufficient"? Is it insufficient even if i had only a one point deficit (pawn)? Or does it become insufficiant if one loses more than 3 points (maybe bishop)? Maybe the actual rating has an influence?
