Automatic draw without repetition of any moves

Hello,

I was playing a game and I was leading the exchange rook for bishop when suddenly my game was drawn. I was not offered a draw and we did not repeat any moves.

Here is the link for the game: lichess.org/K8lVlIVZFXgj

Thank you,
Oliver

It was a draw by repetition. The position was repeated three times. It is positions and not moves, and it does not need to be consecutive.

It was a little tricky to nail down, but yes, the positions (and conditions) after White's 27th, 29th and final move are identical, so it's a draw.

It never ceases to surprise me when I see 2000+ rated players who aren't aware that it's the repetition of a position, NOT the moves, that determines the draw.
