The Most Ridiculous Draw Ever!!!

In this clip, I forced a draw against a guy who insisted on continuing, despite there being no way for him to win once he blew his only chance. In this particular event, it was announced beforehand, that there would be no draws based on "insufficient losing chances", that's why I never made such a claim.

Actually, yes it was. This event began after 10pm, and went til 1am, which is normal for blitz at the end of big tournaments. It wasn't mine, or my opponent's, but some players, by then, had pretty much let their hair down, which, for some, involves a beer "on board" ;-) I honestly don't know if that person won their game or not, but seeing that was pretty funny, nonetheless.

there was no way your opponent could win??!?!?!?!!

there was no way for YOU to win, either, dude!!!

the game was a DRAW

but yeah ive had that happen to me and it sucks balls i wanted to stab my bitch opponent hahah

First, I'm the woman in tan in this video. Second, the fact that it was a Draw was not in question, rather my opponent (man to the left) insisted on playing this as such, in hopes that I would mess up in the time scramble. I asked him several times to call it a Draw, but he refused, and insisted on continuing, until he realized he would never outlast me on time. Hence what you see here.

You showed admirable restraint by not punching him in the face.

Good job staying cool under time pressure. Even though that drawing pattern is well known I bet a lot of good players would botch that in a time scramble. That said, your opponent was being a real douchebag...

[nataschmidtt]

are they retarded? that was about 20-30 fold repetition?

[dovespin1]

That was stupid! Draw by 50 fold repetition...lol

[dnaselfassemby]

what an asshole! He wanted to steal the win

[ticochess]

there is no a law about draw for three foldrepetition?

[moviecritic6]

@warblerab The draws were most likely offered un the time inbetween the fade transitions. One is also offered at 3:11 or 3:12

[warblerab]

@jtlauser You say you asked him several times to call it a Draw, yet I did not see you ask him even once in the video. Maybe recording equipment wasn't good enough to pick it up??

[supergreatsuper]

No 3 fold repetition draw?

[Doomclaw214]

position at 2:28 is completely winning for white

Good job girl! That dude was a real jerk, I am glad that you managed to stay calm :)
