That's definitely true for me or at least my levels of concentration are better suited to a blitz game. In a standard play game I lose focus and get distracted easily so even if I've used plenty of time most of it has not been productive. By contrast a game lasting five to ten minutes forces me to try to keep focus even if I may find time for the occasional glance above the laptop screen if there's football on tv!Keith Arkell wrote: ↑Wed Mar 03, 2021 1:40 am
Indeed - hopefully these events will be incorporated into the ECF's Official Online Championships next time. Not only do females and kids under 8 enjoy blitz but many seniors say that it's their favorite form of the game because it doesn't tire them out in the way long classical chess games do.
