Go up one level in this thread


In the chessmaster 9000 match with Larry Christiansen the time control was --
2 minutes + 120 seconds per move as you probaly already know.

My point is that Larry didn't seem to be in time trouble in any of his games
as he always had plenty of time on his clock. At the end of the match he was
interviewed and he said that the time control actually helped him in some games
compared to if he would have actually played the original time control 30 moves
in 60 minutes!

John Merlino will confirm this if you didn't hear the interview!

Regards,
      Terry
