Hi Jose.

If it looks too good to be true it probably isn't. I don't know how Pro Deo
performs at blitz but if I were you I'd take a look at some of the games. In any
list published they are right around the same elo. I recall ED saying that Pro
Deo was not opitimized for Arena. It also might be the time control. If games
look ok try game in 5 minutes and see what happens. Clearly something is wrong.
