He played all-out wild tactical chess (which is his style, so you could definitely say he was playing "human chess"). Except for the first game (which was the only one CM lost) they were all very exciting. If you are an ICC member, just "fi CM9000" to see how you can view the games. Or you can just download them from www.chessmaster.com (although I'm not sure exactly where they are stored anymore). jm
