Chess Programs With Premove

Does anybody know if there are any chess engines that you can purchase or download for free that have a premove feature?!?!? 

Premoving would be a feature of an interface, not a chess engine.

Huh, I've never really considered that option with a chess program. Why would you want that feature? Just take as long as you want with the computer. It doesn't care how long you are taking on each move.

Thanks for the replies, guys! I am a bullet junkie, but my interent connection is so slow, I lose almost all my Live Chess games on time. I was just thinking that if there were an engine with premove, I would still get all my bullet pleasure without all the lag. :-( As it is, if I set the chess program I have now to 1 min, it always beats me on time....

I think it's a very reasonable question/request. It shouldn't be too hard to implement by those create the interfaces.

I had the same problem with my first internet connection and would lose many games on time. I upgraded to high speed internet and that helped alot. But now when I reach 1700 there are faster connections out there that I can't compete with even if I'm winning the game. :) :( 

I hear you, Warrior. I'd rather spend (or not spend) the money on a program rather than compete with everyone else for a win via a speedy internet connection. It's so frustrating! :-(

I wouldn't use or spend money on a program. You don't learn using programs. I love bullet chess but I have to accept the fact that there are faster connections. At chesscube.com I could reach 2000. But there too after 2000 other players connections are way faster lol :) :(

a matter of fact that if u need time to beat the guy in premoves and its taking all your time, means u r almost equal in level so while u r thinking of this, u must know if u had a super fast internet your rating would never be more than 150+ elo than your current rating. i can only get mad at someone who play to win on time and im like a queen up in them and they win 3 in a row. xD 

i know that since i used to play with 1mbps and now i got 50 mbps

To answer you directly, I'm not aware of any GUI that has this feature.  I could be wrong but I doubt it. 

I suggest you set your bullet time controls to compensate for the computer's inherent speed advantage.  For example, one minute with a 2 second increment for yourself only (no increment for the engine).

Months ago, I posted that I didn't think any GUI had this feature.  I've just discovered, to my surprise, that Fritz does support pre-move.  Live and learn!

Actually, a numerical rating reflects wins and losses (performance).  It doesn't tell you HOW or WHY those wins and losses were acquired.  So no, you can't tell just from a player's rating if they are losing their based upon their play over the board or because of time contraints (getting disconnected, lack of premove, etc.).

YES THERE IS, STOCKFISH APP!!! It has a 2 second move setting that goes super fast, bullet speed. It may help? Btw, what's ur username supposed to mean?

Are you aware of what pre-move means?  Stockfish moving quickly, at bullet speed (within two seconds), has nothing at all to do with "pre-move."

As I said before, pre-moving is a feature of an interface not the chess engine.  When you pre-move, what you are doing is making your move before you have seen your opponent's reply to your prior move.

The regular java interface on a pc has premove.  In fact, you can premove multiple moves in a row with no program.  Using an additional program attached to the engine interface is cheating.

Not direct answer, but might resolve your problem.

 What's your internet provider?  Can you check the latency and packet drops?  I'd bet it isn't about bandwidth (although I've not measured chess.com's live game requirements), but more about the above 2.  If I'm right, then, for example, I'm on Comcast, I can pay the lowest tier (low bandwidth) and still play the same as somebody paying for the max bandwidth because the latency and drops are going to be the same between the 2 tiers.

If it is latency, then you can check if it is your side (which you can manage, and which means even if you switch ISP (internet service provider) will no solve).  You can measure it by (for example) pugging your computer straight into the cable/dsl  modem etc.

To measure, you can use "ping" (run cmd.exe and just type ping).  I'm not too familiar with windows ping, but on (say) Linux, you can specify how many packets, size of packets, etc.  This will let you know latency and drops.  (Assuming chess.com server answers pings).
