I like the way you present this, probably most people here are (like me) not strong/experienced enough chess players to understand how a simul is handled by an experienced player both for play and time management. On the other hand, after having watched and participated to several simuls (hey, always on the weak side) I had the general impression that most players did not give their best is this kind of events (excepting the one leading the simul). All the games I looked at were either easilly won because of a blunder or dominated because opponents did not give their best moves (that they used to find in normal games). Maybe they were impressed, frightened or simply not well concentrated becuase of the nature of the event. Am I wrong here or have you also noticed such a behaviour ? If that is true then it changes a bit the odds because chess program would not have such mental weaknesses... Ujecrh
