What is 125 move rule?

My coach said it was a rule. What is it?

Whaa....

?

The 50 move rule says that if you go 50 moves by both players without a capture or pawn move, then the game is a draw.

The 125 move rule says that if the game goes more than 125 moves by both players, then it's time to give up and find another hobby, because neither of you will ever figure out how to complete a game of chess.

Nah you’re lying 

He said it was about when you can checkmate but 50 moves has passed.

There isn't a 125 move rule.

There is a draw that can be claimed when 50 moves have occurred with no captures or pawn moves. If there have been 75 moves with no captures or pawn moves, the game is automatically drawn (not sure if that one has been implemented here).

Oh he means 120 move rule, I think 

The rules in positions where mate is forcible with perfect play, but more than 50 moves that otherwise could be claimed, have been changed a few times in the past but the current rules are the 50 move and 75 move ones.

Oh ok

Why didn't you ask your coach?  Isn't that what a coach is for?

He should have skipped the whole coach thing and come to the pillars of wisdom on chess.com.

There isn’t?

In prisons, they have a 13-move rule. Which says if your opponent has only a lone king, you must checkmate him in 13 moves, or it is a draw.

Never heard of a 125 move rule thugh. And I have played alot of torunaments, in both the US, and the UK.

Ok

Yep.

Oh

?

ive had 125 move rule against the computer they had one move till checkmate but they just moved up and down and it did say 125 move rule
