Please post the code directly in this message. As a matter of
safe-browsing practices, I won't follow that link.
One tests for equality (draws as you call them) with the == operator.
In what way does that not work for you? Your question is so terse, that
I'm not sure what you want. Provide some examples please.

Using only if elif else, here is the code
Holy HELL man, that's a lot of code for such a simple problem. But
perhaps your assignment requires you to do it this way. (In which case
I'd have a word with your teacher.)
But assuming you've got the sorting part correct, (which you don't quite
-- the three numbers 2 1 3 entered in that order don't sort correctly),
I'll guess the problem is in the 8 lines you have triple-quoted out, true?
The first of those lines won't do what I think you are trying to do. Try
this instead (I'm using a, b, and c instead of your variables):
empate = a==b or a==c
Each == test produces a True/False value and the "or" combines the two
into a single True/False. Your code
empata = a == b or c
does something much different.
That being said, I have to question what you are going to do with 8 such
computations. A single test like
if a==b or b==c or a==c:
would tell you if any two of the three values are equal. Do you need
more information than that?
And then I feel compelled to add one more comment: Your method of
sorting three numbers is extremely wordy and inefficient. What part of
that did you invent, and what part is forced on you by your teacher? Are
you allowed to be “smarter” about it, and would you like some advice on
that part?

Regardless of the way the OP goes about it the use of print functions or
a debugger wouldn't go amiss.
