This is a draw because Black ran out of time, and the White did not have sufficient material to cause a checkmate.
If White had ANY piece in this situation, this would be a win for White. Because he has only a king, then due to the time being exhausted, it's a draw.
Can someone tell me why this game ended in a draw due to insufficient material? My oppenent ran out of time and clearly still had his rook and queen(quite close to my king) in which he could have easily have had checkmate.
For the last 15 seconds of the game My king, his queen and rook danced around the bottom right quadrant of the board. Like i said he could have easily had checkmate so i am confused. Yes i was lacking material but i garauntee if i would have asked for a draw he would have declined because of how fast and aggressive he was moving towards my king at the end of the game(he knew he had checkmate) not too mention it was checkmate in 2( Re2,Kf1,Qd1 checkmate black wins).
I thought you received this insufficient material draw when both players did not have the material to put one another in checkmate?
