I played a game Nero 5 versus CM3000 giving them 15 minutes for a move. Nero managed to keep it even for a long time. In short time controls Nero would soon lose material, because CM calculates the tactical figures much deeper. But with 15 minutes/move Nero also got enough time to see the tactical threats, until there finally occurred a position having "too many moving parts" for Nero and it did one stupid move and began to loose material. Thought CM3K could calculate 4..5 plies deeper than Nero, it couldn't find anything to kill its opponent. (With short times CM's ability to go to deeper depth is fatal to Nero.) Jari
