Theoretical draw position.

Dear Lichess, please check ️ out the game I have linked below ...



Please, check out this game, because it can not be possible by any measures, to get lost ( on time, or whatever case, indeed ) when the opponent has just only, a bishop.

Please, be kind to accept this fair claim, and proceed to solved it by declaring the game as a draw ( points involved included, may be returned back )

Thanks in advanced.

Please read the FAQs. Then you will discover why this is so...

It's not a draw since there is still a way for white to deliver checkmate. If the black pawn promote into a knight and go with its king to the opposite corner of the board, then white can checkmate.

I guess you already know the rule, but just in case :
lichess.org/faq#timeout

Since you bring up the term,

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draw_(chess)
> A book draw or a theoretical draw is a position that is known to result in a draw if both sides play optimally.

One way to think about it is that once a player's timer has run out, they can no longer play optimally. So a "theoretical draw" is not guaranteed to be an actual draw.
