I hope Kramnik plays as if he were being paid for every win, not just for
winning the match.  Of the latter there is little doubt.  But to see him score 4
or 5 wins would wake the world up a little about the real strength of the top
GMs versus today's programs running on PCs.  I guess we'll see whether Kramnik
coasts from here on or whether he keeps up the pressure.
