Definice a Význam "time control"

What is "time control"?

Time control is a rule in chess that sets a limit on the amount of time each player has to make their moves during the game. There are different types of time control, such as classical, where each player has a set amount of time for the entire game, and blitz or rapid, where each player has less time per move or a fixed time for the whole game. If a player runs out of time before making a move, they lose the game, regardless of the position on the board. Time control adds an element of pressure, requiring players to think quickly while maintaining strategic focus.
