In Response To: Speaking of clocks.... (Rich Munitz)

Richard " Or is the goal to ensure that matches are finished in a predictable amount of time in order to keep the tournament running on track? I think it is the latter that is the more important goal."

Richard and I agree completely about the goal of clock usage, however we disagree about both the need and desirability of clocking breaks.

From I've seen during the past few years of ABT play, excessive breaks and delays caused by them are not a problem in ABT champ level events.
