What were the time limits used in the Flits Valneris match?
In the Flits Krajenbrink match the time was 20 minutes/player + 10 seconds/move. Is this fast? In the World Championship the time is 50 moves/2 hours + 1 hour. Krajenbrink would have better chances with more time.

When you play without a plan you are going to lose. Your pieces are going aimlessly here and there and are not working together harmoniously like a family to achieve a common goal. Often the pawn structure can show you where you should play, at the kingside or at the queenside.

In Chess GMI vd Wiel is wel known to play good against programs .
However, this was aprox. 5 years ago, (chess)programs have evolved to much at the present.

I think Van der Wiel once said something like 'Stop thinking you're playing chess against a computer. It's a different game, so you have to play different'.
