This makes it a totally different game. GMs *never* *ever* play against each other on these conditions. This is somewhat like asking what would happen if Kasparov and Karpov played each other without having seen any of the opponent's games.

But there are no blitz super GMs. The human players have won their GM titles at ordinary time controls. The fact that someone is world champion at 10.000 meters track, wouldn't suggest that he would also beat Carl Lewis at a short distance. > >I believe that more than hundred of free engines on a fast hardware are better >than Fritz3 on a hardware that is at least 20 times slower. > >Does it mean that they all are GM strength against humans or maybe they are >better only against computers and not against humans. No, you don't have any data for this. It is not unusual to have A beats B, B beats C, and C beats A.
