I think, you cannot really tell from the match, that his preparation was wrong. After all, he won the 1st, resigned the 2nd too early which was a draw, made 3 draws in a row, and the last game was an accident. What would you have recommended, how to prepare against such an opponent, when nothing comparable is available? It wasn't only about the strength level, but also about the "mentality" of chess programs. I think, a strong micro was the best approximation available. Regards, M.Scheidl
