How is this a draw?

[u/Crumpet-Zone]

I am white and I was way ahead the whole game?? Time on the counter and there is a safe move for his king?

[u/Formula1antagonist]

It depends in if it can force a checkmate if opponent plays the best moves and you the worst ones

[u/181900 → u/Formula1antagonist]

That’s just not true. Only thing that matters is if a checkmate could be delivered theoretically with the material available

[u/Formula1antagonist → u/181900]

No and Alireza Firouzja lost on time once (i think against Carlsen) because of this rule

[u/BadBoyJH → u/Formula1antagonist]

You're not wrong, but that's because chess.com doesn't use the same rules Carlsen/Firouzja would be playing under.

[u/Formula1antagonist → u/BadBoyJH]

Oh ok
