Would a chess game go on indefinitely if both players played the absolute best move each turn?
@Brondahl If by "finite" you mean that the position will eventually repeat, then sure it is finite.

@Brondahl If by "finite" you mean that the game ends because of the 75 moves rule that is debatable, depending on whether you consider FIDE laws as part of the game (see comment by supercat). Also note that the OP specifically excludes draws.
