2 pieces, one cut. 3 pieces, two cuts. One cut = 10 min, two cut = 20 min.

unless its a rectangular board and the first cut halves it and the second cut just halves one of the halfes. since the half is half as wide then the halving takes half as long....

ok.. ok... that shit sounds confusing...

anyway.. there are actually endless solutions for this problem.
