Go up one level in this thread


If GK decided to engage in psychological warfare against DB, then I would
suggest that it wasn't a very sensible thing to do. No amount of antics (short
of pulling the plug out  :)  ) are going to change the way a computer plays.

In Daniel King's book about the match, he seems to imply that GK engaged in
psychological warfare against himself (or maybe that's reading too much between
the lines!). At the very least, he dwelled on game 2 too much - probably to the
detriment of his preparation and play in other games.
