In reality though, this is another story as after 27 and a half >hours and a depth of 20/53 Fritz still prefers Kasparov's move 20.a3 but the >eval is wrong when it suggests 21.c5 so i take it that computers still need alot >more work. Hsu reported that DB expected the bishop sac and had a score of 0.00... I saw a lot of GM analysis that finally concluded that Kasparov's move was better, as after his move in the game, he threatens the bishop sac which would then win. I don't recall the analysis in detail however, just that it was discussed a lot while the game was in progress and then later at several chess sites around the world...
