Itβs not checks, itβs pawns moved
Number of illegal chess moves is more than atoms in the universe*
The 50 rule counts if no pawns got moved or piece being captured. So in theory,the maximum moves are 141,120(without repetition or stalemate and checkmate).49(maximum moves before reaching 50 move)*6(maximum move a pawn can move until promotion)*16(number of pawns)*30(number of pieces that can be captured,excluding kings) Feel free to correct me if im wrong
It's actually 75 move without capture or promotion and the game will be a draw even when neither player claim a draw. But, a player can claim a draw after 50 move of no capture, or promotion.

Bro forgot the timer ββ
I could only calculate 5945 50x8x4 (8 black pawns move to the 3rd rank) + 50 - 0.5 (capturing a black pawn) + (50x7 + 50x2 - 0.5)x7 (promoting a white pawn and let a black pawn capture the promoted pawn, and repeat this until all black pawns are promoted) + 50x7 - 0.5 (let the final white pawn promote) + 50x16 -0.5 (capturing the remaining pieces)
It's either moving a pawn or capturing a piece that resets the 50 move rule
And this is why the 75 move rule was introduced

I'd like to know how anyone knows the number of atoms in the universe???
Ok another YouTuber actually talked about this and says if theres no 50 move rule and 70 move rule a chess game would go infinitely
2 moves is the shortest
but like what if i repeat three moves suppose of the knight then come back n the opponent does the same..wouldn't the no of moves be infinite then?
What if you remove the 50 Move Rule? How long Can a Game be Then??
Nah, its 8848 moves
