From the Fide handbook: -- The game is drawn when a position has arisen in which *neither* player can checkmate the opponent's king with any series of legal moves. The game is said to end in a 'dead position'. This immediately ends the game, provided that the move producing the position was legal. -- So my example does not fit this rule. Regards, Dieter
