I cannot move that fast >ever! How do they make their moves so fast? THANKS! just curious. Two possibilities. First they are still in the opening book even though your engine was out of book. Second, they are making a "ponder" move. By that I mean that they were pondering when your engine was thinking. They had a ready move based upon what their engine expected your engine to do. I have a question about the playchess site too. Why does my system do a temporary "hang" very often when I logoff from playchess after playing some engine v engine matches?
