There are all kinds of delays before engine gets a chance to calculates it's move. This may be as much as half a second per move. In this specific game I agree tiger should be more carefull with it's time usage, e.g after move 60 shutka still had 2:34 while tiger only had 0:21, after move 80 shutka had 2:27 , tiger 0:05, finally on move 90 shutka still had 2:18 and tiger lost on time. Now this timing looks a bit strange, shutka made 90 moves in 42 seconds, thats damned fast ? It looks like the timeseal program is giving some extra time, sometimes after a move was made the clock was one second up instead of down ?! Lex
