A draw by repetition means that the position was repeated 3 times, no matter the moves in between.
Black repeated moves, but white did not. So no draw.

Position includes all piece pistons, castling rights, en passant rights, and player to move.
The whole board position has to repeat.

The black king is only moving back and forth, but none of white's moves are repeated more than once. If they were to play Ra7 again, then it might occur.

You really should think before you move. Don't just play random moves.
When white played 5. Bxf7+, that just throws away the bishop. Why didn't you take it?
thanks, I didn't realize that the whole chessboard has to be exactly in the same state, I know what to look for in the future then
Learned something new today…thought it was 3 moves not the whole position..thanks
Hi, can somebody explain why this wasn't automatically ended as draw by repetition?
Thanks!
