Go up one level in this thread

I believe that kramnik was afraid of the calculation power of the computer in
the 4 of 3 majority endgame. These endgames even though theory suggests a draw
with best play are very complex and can often lead to a win for the majority.
Many possibilities could have happened. Perhaps a queen and pawn versus
queen....OUCH then there is trouble when its the tablebases that scare the hell
out of anyone. Kramnik cracked he is human.
