cook untill you have only a third of the liquid left in the pan...i.e. boil off two thirds of liquid and sauce is thickened

It is hard to tell, you have to take a good estimate. For example if you have 3 cups of ingredients you reduce it until you have a 1 cup. So if you are looking at what you have in the pot a little more than half should be about 2/3.
