Item Description...

Product Description
In chess, a draw is one of the possible outcomes of a game, the others being a win for White (loss for Black) and a win for Black (loss for White). Traditionally, in tournaments a draw is worth a half point to each player, while a win is worth one point to the victor and none to the loser. There are proposals to change this (see draw by agreement#Steps taken to discourage draws or short draws). For the most part, a draw occurs when it appears that neither side will win. Draws are codified by various rules including stalemate (when the player to move has no legal move and is not in check), threefold repetition (when the same position occurs three times), and the fifty-move rule (when the last fifty successive moves made by both players contain no capture or pawn move). A draw also occurs when neither player has sufficient material to checkmate the opponent or when no sequence of legal moves can lead to checkmate. Unless specific tournament rules forbid it, players may agree to a draw at any time. Ethical considerations may make a draw uncustomary in situations where at least one player has a reasonable chance of winning.
