Question

Let's say you're playing chess with a time limit. What do the official rules of chess say about sitiuation when in a rapid play (chess with a time limit) game neither player has declared checkmate when times up.

Answer 1

Official chess rules require a chess clock, which has two clock faces. These alternate in ticking, for example, while I am thinking about a move, the clock is ticking down on my side. When I am done, I press a lever button which activates my opponent's clock, and so on. Therefore, if neither player has been checkmated by the time one player's clock has run out of time, that person loses, by time.

The chess clock has two flags, which will rise as time nears the less than 5 minute zone. When one player's flag drops, they lose on time control.

Often, begginer chess is played with only one clock as a "time limit". However, this is unfair because one player could purposely take a long time to "think" when they are losing. Therefore the concept of a double chess clock was invented.

Answer 2

Each player has their own clock, and every time a move is made the player presses a button which stops their own clock and starts their opponent's clock. If the flag on the clock falls indicating a player has run out of time before the game has ended, their opponent wins.

According to rule 6.12b of the FIDE Laws of Chess, if BOTH players have exceeded the time limit, then whichever flag fell first determines the outcome, however if this cannot be determined, then the game is a draw.

Some tournaments have multiple time limits, such as 40 moves in two hours and the balance of the game in one hour (for each player). If the first time limit is exceeded by a player before they make their 40th move, they lose. In this case, if BOTH players exceeded the time limit and it cannot be determined which did so first, then the game continues to the next time limit (rule 6.12a).

Answer 3

The player whose time is up has lost the game. Even if it seems you're winning the game because you have stronger position and more pieces than your opponent, you're still regarded as the looser if your time is up.

This situation happens more often in short games rather than standard ones. For example in 5, 7 or 10-minute games it happens all the time.

One way to save the game if you're running short of time is to try to agree a draw with your opponent BEFORE your time is up. Obviously, you have to be able to demonstrate you might be able to win to game in the remaining time for your opponent to agree with your proposal!
