Friedel from ChessBase, let me say this. And this is the final truth! (However I knew it already in 1997 when a befriended _Super_ GM sent me his commentary.) If I take the whole game in its Ganzheit and its Sosein and its Wesenheit, excuse the technical terms, but they alone describe the essentials, then I must state that already the opening Kasparov had chosen PROVES beyond any doubt that the whole game was a hoax or call it fake. Kasparov had chosen the possible only variation of the Spanish Defense that puts Black forcedly into a dull defense without ANY perspectives. That to begin with. So - it's already a hoax to even speak of a DB2 that "outplayed" Kasparov. That is a typical neo-positivistic hoax from our ingenious correspondent. It was the decion of Kasparov alone, that defines the In-die-Welt-Geworfensein of this game "two". To mention the recent hoax between Kasparov (again! whoelse??) and DEEP JUNIOR this time, where the same twist took place. They said that NOT Kasparov played a whole lot of bulk [some say bull] but DEEP JUNIOR played like a GM! That is probably the same Gestalt as if I would tell you that after my Grandmother was in Church and prayed, she came and danced Techno for 26 hours without going to the loo even once. When in real I mixed her a cocktail of Speed and Acid into her sleeping tea. Now who is the Deus ex machina? God or my Pills? The first who gets me the right answer wins a week in Las Vegas, with pool, girls and all inclusive. :) I mean, give me break! Who believes Kasparov a single word, not to mention his moves? Rolf Tueschen P.S. Hyperbole in chess will lead into deflation! I wished Kasparov had a bit of Rubinstein, who was cool. Kasparov is so indescribably importunate! Amnesty International should also care about the slavery of his Mother Klara, the (classical!) necessary sacrifice...
