I must agree with robert at blitz time controls, although >I do believe that the non-master can defeat computers at slow times from time to >time, although even this will be rare. I believe that you can win computer in blitz after enough games. one way is simple to play the same line beginning with 1.f3 again and again and learn from your mistakes. The commercial program have no 1.f3 and is going to play in the same way again and again and after enough games you can win it. Uri
