For reference please take a look at the games I've been running with the king at

http://mysite.freeserve.com/intagrand/junior8test/index.html
http://mysite.freeserve.com/intagrand/pgn/j8cm9kskr.zip  <-- SKR settings
http://mysite.freeserve.com/intagrand/pgn/j8cm9k.zip     <-- default settings

There are at the time control 40/2 hours + 20/1 hour + 30mins rest

The King often has over an hour left before reaching the first and second time
controls. I'm not criticising your engine, I just hope some of this data could
be useful to you.

regards

Anson
