isn't it possible to have infinite moves? since you can keep moving some pieces back and forth?

No. Why?
Because there is simple rule - 50 moves without taking or moving a pawn - draw.
Clear now?

Not 100% true. A game is not automatically draw after 50 moves without taking or moving a pawn. A game is only draw accordingly to to the 50-move rule, if one of the player is claiming draw. They can legally (!) continue playing until the dead of one of the players, if not a time limit stops the game.

What happened to the games you were going to post ?
Chuck Norris owns the greatest Poker Face of all-time. It helped him win the 1983 WSOP holding just a Get out of Jail Free Monopoloy card, and a green #4 card from the game UNO, against an AAA KK flop and his rival folding AK after Chuck raised him ALL-IN

The 50-move rule is a part of chess. The game is drawn regardless of either player's intentions.

50 move rule is 50 moves from 1 player, or its 25 moves from one and 25 from the other

50 full moves.
And NeoTheAKA is in mistake, UT-atma is correct.
I didn't knew it too, when UT-atma wrote I researched at www.fide.com only to see that he is correct.

what if all the pawns are dead ? does that mean there are only 50 moves left?

Yes, that is why it is important to understand how to win King + KNight + Bishop vs King.

No.
50 moves rule applies to pawns AND takings.
So whenever there's take - new 50 moves.

ChoboCop,

I would like to know: are you certain that NeoTheAKA didn't cheat you? Did you play blitz games?

Even though his "abrasiveness" ( I would use a totally different word, though...) might be facade, his behavior is a shame for chess players in general (my opinion).

Additionally, to state that skill in chess is a good measure for intelligence, is rather ridiculous....
