So his analysis with engines will be shorter than the time the opponent engine calculates the moves. The question is now, will he be able to use his limited time and computer power as much productive, that he will be able to defeat 6 programs with 5:1? I personally doubt that unless he will be able to decide the game in the opening phase (which is quite possible, since all books have holes - especially if it comes to correspondance time control). regards Joachim
