How does repetition draw rule actually work? I did repetition only twice but it was considered draw. 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 Nd4 4. Nxd4 exd4 5. d3 Bb4+ 6. Bd2 Bxd2+ 7. Nxd2 Qg5 8. Bc4 Qxg2 9. Rf1 Ne7 10. Qf3 Qxf3 11. Nxf3 O-O 12. Nxd4 c5 13. Nb5 a6 14. Nc7 Rb8 15. a4 Nc6 16. Nd5 Nd4 17. Rc1 b5 18. axb5 axb5 19. Bb3 Ba6 20. Nc7 Bb7 21. Bd5 Bxd5 22. Nxd5 Nf3+ 23. Ke2 Nxh2 24. Rg1 f5 25. f3 fxe4 26. f4 exd3+ 27. cxd3 Rbe8+ 28. Kf2 c4 29. Rg2 Rf5 30. Ne3 Rxf4+ 31. Kg3 Rf3+ 32. Kxh2 Rexe3 33. dxc4 bxc4 34. Rxc4 Rh3+ 35. Kg1 Re1+ 36. Kf2 Rb1 37. Rb4 h6 38. Rb7 Rd3 39.

It is triple repetition of position

The position is the same after white moves 52, 54, and 56. Basically, no progress is being made so a draw can be claimed, and here it's automatic on live Chess
