Shearer In the case of tiger it did not play the same games but only the same mistakes in the opening so I do not think that you can win it again and again in the same opening. Junior could do it but it is because computers can translate a small advantage to a win but I do not believe that humans can translate small advantage to a win in blitz again and again when the opponent does not play the same game but only does a small mistake in the opening.
