how did he know what lines fritz would play? what kind of book did the fritz
version have that he was using? what did the chessbase team change in that book?
and why on earth didnt they change EVERYTHING in kramnik's normal repertoire, if
they didnt do that and allowed kramnik to play prepared games? i hope we will
get the answers to these questions after the match - obviously, they aren't
telling right now.
i also hope kramnik & team will be open enough to say about each game how far it
was prepared after the match!
