Harri is *the* man for Blitz. Well, quite often he's *the* man full stop.
Couple of months back Harri treated me to one of my most enjoyable experiences at RHP. He and I played 5 games simultaneously, blitzing it for well over 3 hours non-stop. He had to be in work early the next morning too, and I forget what time it was, but let's just say it was way past both of our bed times. So there I was, exhausted from having to move so fast, for so long, whilst thinking hard enough to play to a good enough standard to keep Harri thinking, and then next day he tells me that he enjoyed his blitz session.
Turns out that while I'd been virtually exclusively playing Harri, desperately trying to keep up with his moves, he'd not only been doing the same to me, but had also been playing 3 or 4 other opponents at the same time!
He's a living legend 😀

I may be from the enemy camp, but I still enjoy playing blitz, I played T1000 about 300 moves one night, of course I did not a chance, but I tried!
I do enjoy to play real blitz, anytime Andrew or who ever wants to play, best to my knowledge I have not turned down anyone for a single game (unless I had posted a message in the forum that I would slow down for a while).
I think John, vaknso, can also recal a day during the fall whe we played avoer 900 moves in a single day, played about 35 games!!
I may not be the best, but I have slightly improved lately. I had actually broken the 1700 level when I played less than 10 games at the time.
I rather play 100 games and make few stupid moves (and loose some) because I am having more fun!
Anyone, if you want blitz, let's play!
Start a game and state when you can play (the time range in your country, just let me know which one it is and I will try to be ready!)
