Probably ten minute sudden death or 10" or 20'' per move are the most popular time controls for really fast play.

I was thinking more Amateur than Pro., so I will go for the 45 limit. Are there any standardised Blitz-style timings in use?

Rating play of the Tokyo Amateur Renmei uses 45' sudden death. Some amateur events use 30' plus 30" byoyomi. Pro events (other than tv games) usually use several hours per side plus one minute byoyomi. Larry Kaufman ----- Original Message ----- From: Jeff Rollason To: shogi topica com Sent: Tuesday, July 31, 2007 1:10 PM Subject: Shogi time controls Can anyone tell me what time controls might be typically used in Shogi tournaments and matches in Japan? In chess there are batches of 40 moves in 2 hours, with renewed time allocation and also Blitz timing. I know the CSA timing is 25 minutes for all your moves, but may be that is not in use in human tournaments. This is for use for on-line games.
