He continues,"had Kramnik wiped out Deep Fritz,as looked early in the Bahrain match Kasparov would not only have looked slightly silly for losing to Deep Blue but would have been obliged to beat Deep Junior convincingly to maintain parity with Kramnik.The tied match however leaves a wonderful opportunity for Kasparov to decide the question of human superiority over machines as well as steal a march on Kramnik." Personally I think Kasparov will have trouble beating Deep Junior given his performance against Deep Blue.Then again he may work a lot harder in preparing for this match.It should prove interesting. al
