Three moves draw rule

Question about 3 move check draw rule: I have posted five pics. I made sure there is a different square thr king goes on after second check, but yet I could not avoid draw in the bullet chess game.

It’s not moves that repeat. It’s the total position which occurred three times which resulted in a draw. In this game, the same position occurred after moves 16, 18, and 20 for white.

But 16,18, 20 are not successive, right? Isn't that a criteria?

No, in fact the three positions don’t have to occur in consecutive moves.

Also, it's completely impossible for the same position to occur in consecutive moves.

I have no idea what the OP was thinking.

I am not sure why you say it is impossible. Forgive my naivety as fairly a beginner level Chess enthusiast. As rookies, whenever we played on physical board, we used the three move draw rule to force a draw and it usually was consecutive moves on two or three squares, hence the confusion.
