I think he reffered to the concept of "how easily human (in this case GM)
learns". In this tourny kramnik pointed out the "weakness" others are following
it (though DJ lost just 2 games). But I think most GM dont know anti-computer
games. if they understand the concept of anti-computer games than the face of
this tourny "would be a LOT differant" IMO.
but again I maybe wrong.....
