Details about the games of this tournament and the name of the winner(winners) that kramnik plays against should be revealed only after the match. In this way kramnik will have a bigger problem to prepare(he will only know that he plays against a computer) and the match will be more interesting. Even in this case I believe that kramnik is considered as a favourite to win the match. Uri
