It is about beating kasparov and not about not finding the right moves in part of the games. Kramnik played better than kasparov. I am not sure if other players are going to play better than kasparov in a match. I believe that kramnik is going to get at least 1 out of 3 but I am not sure. There are 3 games to play and it is not over. > >>Kasparovs problem in this match is that Kramnik has busted his >>much loved Grünfeld, and he has not been able to come up with a new defence >>during the match. All in all, Kramnik is just playing great chess and Kasparov >>has been sitting there, defending. > >right. kasparovs is defending. he has nothing else to do. it's very nice to see. We are going to see if he has nothing else to do in the rest of the games. Uri
