If that happened like that I would be happy, no question about it. But the truth
is that Kasparov "saw" it (the better) and still played the weaker stuff.
Excuse me if I begin to reflect. What is not yet conspiracy theoretizing.
If you were talking about the forth game, then I wait until the comments come
out. But already now I feel sad that Kasparov played such a nonsense. And
hedgehog does NOT excuse all the repetitions. He almost invited to the b6
variation. Crazy.
