To detect fivefold repetitions can be challenging for the arbiter. In the game [[Akshat Khamparia]] vs. Li Bo, Budapest 2018, Li twice requested a draw, saying simply "repetition". Both times the request was rejected because it was not made correctly according to the threefold repetition rule. Li was later checkmated. Li disputed the result, indicating that the position had occurred five times. The arbiter was able to verify fivefold repetition at moves 60, 62, 68, 73 and 75.<ref name="FideArbitersMagazineSeptember2018" /> Had the fivefold repetition rule not been in effect, the result would have stood, as no correct claim for threefold repetition had been made. Under the fivefold repetition rule, however, the fifth occurrence of a position immediately terminates the game, and subsequent moves become irrelevant. The result was therefore overturned, and the game was declared a draw.<ref name="FideArbitersMagazineSeptember2018">{{Cite web|last=Saltamara|first=Efstathia|date=September 2018|title=FIDE Arbiter's Magazine|issue=Magazine 07, September 2018|url=https://arbiters.fide.com/wp-content/uploads/Publications/Magazine/ARBMagazine07.pdf|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191006094128/http://arbiters.fide.com/images/stories/downloads/2018/FIDE_Arbiters_Magazine_No_7_-_September_2018.pdf|archive-date=6 October 2019|access-date=26 August 2020|website=FIDE|page=8}}</ref><ref name="KhampariaLiPgn">The PGN of the game is contained in the following FIDE rating page {{Cite web|title=PGN Chess Game First Saturday GM May 2018 (HUN)|url=https://ratings.fide.com/view_pgn.phtml?code=181399|access-date=3 August 2020|website=FIDE}}</ref>
