Faster than computer :-)

I quite like playing bullet games with Chess.com computers - usually the Medium or Hard. Something rather funny happened to me a while ago. I finished a 2/1 game and was kind of surprised when I saw I had been making moves faster than the Computer. I had 2:16 on my clock and the Computer only 2:00. Laughing

It was not a great game (not bad for a player like myself but the Computer played worse than it usually does) but since I often lose on time (1/0 games are my nightmare) I was pleased. Here is the game:

First, I would not say I played a bad game although it is a relative thing to say. If you take into account that I am not a good player, I made 44 moves in 28 seconds (moves 34 through 44 were premoves, though), and my engine likes most of them I think it was not bad at all. Nevertheless, since your ratings are about the same as mine could you please share your own good bullet game? Wink

 

Please note this Forum is called "Fun With Chess". Consequently, there is no need to spend too much time looking for the point here.

Yes, I think it is just a curiosity.
