Subject: quantity vs. time-control questions

De La Maza says in his "Rapid Chess Improvement for Adults" that you should play
chess at SD90 or three hours total time. At this rate unless you're practicing
playing in the first day of a two days OTB tournament you only playing one game
three days a week according to De La Maza's schedule.
My question what do people here feels about training not with blitz chess or
Fischer increment time-controls but with sudden-death? Personally I feel that
with Game 90 I have chances of getting a playable endgame that I can have
chances to hold for a draw.
