To me I see a different point. Try playing a GM 50 times and see how many you'll win. Forget the time controls for a second as IMO Eduard could easily repeat this at tournament controls as I feel I also could. Computers are known for being better at blitz than GM's simply log onto ICC and have a look. With a computer once you find the path to the win in most cases the path remains open. Simply play out of book asap if you win the computer in all liklihood will repeat it's same mistakes. Try that against a GM. Sarah. > >> >>Regards, >>M.Scheidl
