The rule is this: ''The game is drawn when a player having the move claims a draw and demonstrates that at least 50 consecutive moves have been made by each side without the capture of any piece and without the movement of any pawn.'' -- From the FIDE Laws of Chess <p>In other words, if no one has made a capture or moved a pawn within the last 50 moves (by each player), then the game is a stalemate. <p>There is no rule with regard to one player having their King as their only remaining piece, although that is typically the situation in the above rule. <p>I hope this answers your question. If not, please keep asking!
