Time Control

Hello Chess friends! It happened more often, that at the end of a game a lot of moves can till be made when the time is running out. But now my opponent played 15 (!) moves in his last three seconds. How is that even possible? Even if i am very fast, more than four or five seems the absolute maximum. Is there a special trick or something? 

Thanks in advance.

Premoves take a minimum of 0.1 second and it's possible to move 30 moves in 3 seconds

But it was a live-game.. How can you do 10 premoves in a second? How can you anticipate that quickly when its in real time? BTW thanks for you answers! wink

It's very possible if the connection doesn't have high lag

A premove takes 0.1 seconds. I can do 10 premoves in a second. Also, on iOS you can only do one premove at one move, but on Android/Desktop you can do as much you want
