It is known that Junior does not know to play blitz without losing on time.
I saw in games that Nimzo has the same problem.

I do not understand the loss in time against gandalf because I do not know about
cases when Junior lost on time at tournament time control games and I know no
losses on time for Junior in the ssdf games.

It make me suspect that there is a problem with the hardware.

I saw from the scores of the games Junior-gandalf that the sides did not use the
KRP vs KR tablebases.

It is not the first time that I see this kind of problem in the games gandalf
-Junior and gandalf-Fritz(I did not check the openings and one of the reason is
the fact that I do not have fritz6's opening book but I will not be surprised if
the sides did not use the right opening book or if one of them did not use
learning in part of the cases)
