Onderwerp: Draw is possible in regular pente games

On the discussion board of *144*Brf's 7th Annual St. Pat's Pente Tourney*144* tournament some players wrote that draw is not possible in regular pente games. They are wrong, draw is possible. Since I'm not a participant of this tournament, I'm writing here.

Here you can see the local fragment, the rest of the board is filled systematically.

At first, players fill columns C,D,G,H etc. After that they fill remained columns. It is easy to see that any piece will not be captured.
