I call it professional biz... I could see that Roy did already answer you. That is one point. The other is that I do not understand you, what you mean with your idea that he might have had it on the board. Let's try to analyse what you are saying and perhaps meaning. 1. This is a match and nobody would tell the press and the opposite side what's really going on. Is that correct? I would agree with you. 2. Your idea is that because Kramnik had Bf8 on the board he could prepare the whole game in advance. Is that correct? But then he should have forgotten Bc4? I have a completely different view. But my view is also not the whole truth! Perhaps it's completely wrong. But tell me what you are thinking if you read this... (1) Kramnik played Fritz also in Blitz for years. He knows what Fritz can achieve. (2) Deep in Kramnik's heart or conscience there's the following view: - Fritz is absolutely stupid positionally - Fritz is dangerous for a player who is sloppy in his calculations - I have only a good chance against Fritz if I am well prepared mentally and psychologically, it will be hard work to win the games, because I must be concentrated for the whole game - the biggest problem for me is the question of the money! I'm Russian and I don't want to present the Western World a Russian who is only greedy at the money - my idea ist the following: I can only justify the million dollar prize money if I play some extraordinary chess games - by doing that I get into theopposition of these nice people from chessbase - but since the horror trip in 1997 the World of chess is awaiting someone toset the record straight. So I must beat FRITZ with a clear result. Fritz is not DB2 but if I beat the terribly strong Fritz (in the eyes of the computer chess lovers) I can stir the emotions PRO computer chess and a new spring will bring golden times for CC - so, yes, I've found the solution: I am in the zwick or the zugzwang that I must beat FRITZ with a high result. To prevent that I'm regarded as the asshole of CC for the next decades I will show to each chess programmer how far they are away from the beauties of chess. I will create beautiful games where FRITZ simply is stumbling like the Bear Sonny Liston when got his knock-out against Cassius Clay. Also Liston was dangerous like hell, but Clay was dancing and stinging like a bee. So that I will prove them. So that they learn some humility. And then perhaps they understand how they should treat us chess masters. With respect! - But to achieve that I will create some little masterpieces which will even recognized by the folks of INFORMATOR - I can only hope that Frederic could understand me and that he won't boycott me in the future [- The problem I couldn't solve yet is, who on Earth could be my speaker to the World. Well, it could only be a congenial deep thinker. Perhaps someone unknown in the world of chess. Yes, perhaps Rolf from CCC.......] ===================================================================== That could be the thoughts of Vladimir Kramnik! And if he will win the show against FRITZ we should thank him a million times because he has brought back chess into CC! You out there - could you hear me calling? All together now we must walk into a different direction in CC. This time we go with chess hand in hand! ===================================================================== >(To the other stuff: I thought you were at the side who does not exaggerate >the abilities of chess progs but it seems you changed your point of view >totally since a while Err, I don't know what you are talking about. I did NOT change my view. I think that we must bring back chess into CC and therefore I'm so happy that Vladimir is playing such wonderful masterpieces! From now on we have two different department of chess. We have the traditional chess, called human chess. And we have Anti-computer chess. Here Kramnik has opened a new category. The chess without spectacular tricks or sacrifices but simply solid chess with piecesthe usual computer program has no business with. Perhaps even Kasparov is now again back in the boat. Kramnik is the one who showed the whole world how machines must be outplayed. Not in the timid Huebner style but with artistic elegance! A new epoch of chess has just begun.
