Plus if Kramnik agree not to take advantage of the program by studying its
weakness, in case that Deep Junior manage to beat the Champ, there is always a
possibility of a rematch, since I am almost 99.9% sure that Amir will give the
Champ a rematch. But on the other hand, if the Champ wins by a small margin I do
not believe that he will take his chances next year.
