why draw?

Hi everybody. Does anybody know why at the end of the time of my opponent, the server told me draw? He ended his time so I won.. or not?

If there is no pieces to mate him whatsoever, even if you could chose what white moves, it is a draw by time.

Exactly right. To win on time there has to be a possible way to mate the opponent - even if he would have to actively help you to make it happen. If you couldn't do it even with his help, you only draw when he was out of time.

And now I'll say what I usually say, which is "stop mucking about trying to win on the clock, and get out there playing proper chess". 

In addition, if you are:

1). ahead on material

2). behind on time

3). running out of time

4). can't see a checkmate/checkmate sequence

Make sure you take all of your opponents pieces, that way you will at least get a draw. 

Spiacente, ma se non hai materiale sufficiente per fare matto, non puoi avere la partita vinta. Visto che lui non ha piu tempo, neanche lui puo' averla vinta, pertanto e' patta.

Per chiarire: se tu avessi avuto una regina , od una torre, or anche solo un pedone (che in teoria avesti potuto promuovere), allora ti sarebbe stata aggiudicata la vittoria. Avendo tu solo il re non avresti mai potuto fare scaccomatto neanche in 1 milione di mosse. Pertanto la vittoria ti e' stata negata.

Queste sono regole ufficiali fide, non una stramberia di chess.com
