Efficiently recording and analyzing many matches in a live tournament

I play every tournament match that the director will allow, and my opponents agree to, right on XG on my computer. I even use two mouses (I use mousepad and give my opponent the mouse) so that we can each make our own moves.

Of course we hide the pip count and the evaluation. This is clearly the fastest and most efficient way to record and play matches where evaluations matter.

In many of my matches, my opponent and I make side bets on the eval, sometimes the better playing giving a handicap. (Recently a player at the Chicago Bar Point Club played MCG a match on the computer and he was dumb enough to bet that with a 150 spot on elo he would outplay Matt. I believe Matt won by over 600 elo).

I will play anyone on my computer and bet on the elo and give a 2PR handicap to my opponent.
