I think this matters. > >Lets try a random opponent first...and then Kramnik If you play randomly and the opponent plays randomly, then both will get 50% of the points. If you play randomly and the opponents plays intelligently, you are not going to gather many points. Obviously, it's a function of the strength of your opponent exactly how many points you will get. Strangely, if you play enough games, you will eventually play a perfect game that would beat Kasparov. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting though. It's one of those million monkeys deals.
