John,

Game 5 was a potential win for Kasparov. Had he won the game the best that DJ
could do was to win game 6 and hence draw the match. I do not think that DJ has
enough "horsepower" to beat a top GM. In ten years from now that may change.

I opine that Kasparov said "Ah,Shit" at move 16 and took a draw by repetition
instead of playing like a tiger if his title were on the line. I am not
convinced that he is hungry for an additional $200,000.00 US if he wins the
match. He may yet win in the next game.

Shay and Amir are getting their money's worth. DJ is seen as a wiry opponent
that can draw against the best player in the world. Consumers will be happy with
such a product.
