I have played a (very) little bit of bullet (1 0 usually). In bullet, the _only_ measure of who is winning is kingsafety. Your goal is simply to get the king out in the open. Then your opponent has lets say a 1/3 chance of a major game losing blunder each move for 5-6 moves -> he loses. Positional play is worthless because the game _will_ be decided by a tactic. That is why I don't like bullet. anthony
