Go up one level in this thread


My conclusion is pretty much like yours - when two engines are even only
approximately of similar strength, the randomness of the play caused by the very
short time control is far greater than the true difference in strengths. You can
measure out to 1000000 games, and all you do is measure the randomness of blitz
play.

Far better to play fewer but longer games.
