Hi foxhunt, The game is drawn when there is no capture or promotion to king for 40 pairs of consecutive moves. The game is drawn automatically if there is no winner after 200 moves (100 each). The link to the checkers Game Description can be found on the left-hand side of the checkers game. (PC/MAC)

If you’re playing on a mobile device, it can be found on the right hand-side by tapping the blue arrow with the question mark.

This is false, 100%. Too many times I have been forced to draw with much less than 200 moves. It almost always happens when you’re in a 2 to 3 situation, then whittle down to 1 to 2. It almost always happens when you’re chasing the opposing man toward the other end of the board from the corner. It has happened too many times to be a coincidence. Nowhere near 200 total moves, and just 4, maybe 5 moves since the last capture. I’ve seen others saying the same thing, so it’s not just me.
