in this game, after 68...ka1 why does the server says "draw due to insufficient materials"???

Your opponent timed out, but since you haven't enough material to checkmate, it's declared a draw.

but I had enough materials for a checkmate.

2 bishops are enough. I had even more.

Avatar of Sred

Oh, you were White. Then you timed out and your opponent didn't have enough material to checkmate.

Avatar of soupram

Yeah Sred is right, you probably lost on time but your opponent couldn't mate you so it was declared a draw.
