3.4 Blitz Levels

The levels in the D file of squares are the Blitz levels. If you wish to play speed chess, or

“instant death”, you can select from a range of times which are allowed for the game to be

completed. You may choose between a 5 minute “pressure cooker” of a game to a more

relaxed 1

hours. When you select one of these squares, the display will alternate every

second between the name of the square you have selected, and the corresponding time limit

for the game.

3.5 Bronstein Levels

By selecting a square from E1 to E4 on the chess board, you can select a time limit for the

game following the Bronstein system. A basic time is selected for the game, and an increment

of a few seconds is then added to that time every time a move is made. The increment is

either the free time shown in the table below, or the actual time taken to move, whichever is

shorter. Your choice is shown in the table. When you choose one of these levels, the display

cycles through three different pieces of information, each of which is shown for 1 second. For

example, if you chose E2 you would see:

• The selected square L:E2 and then ....

• The base time in minutes 10:00 and then ....

• The free time in seconds 00:05

1 2 ... 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 ... 25 26
