Take the draw. much easier. g3 will never win for white of course. this is trivial to see for even a FM. What the hell did you guys do at icc? >have even lost it, given he had less than an hour on the clock and it was only >move 16. > >Everyone was shocked on ICC that Kasparov didn't try to win with g3, but now I that's of course people just watching the beancounters at their programs. g3 ain't gonna win at all for white. instead you have a long game where black wins in the end. the analysis i saw so far get already wiped away by a 12 ply search of DIEP here. >think he probably made the right decision! This position is not as easy as it >looked earlier. kasparov begged for a draw with his setup. if he had just 5 braincells that wanted to win from junior he would know that this openingsline is a bad choice because it gives black greatly the opportunity to attack at the king side. Now we all know from world champs where junior joins that the program is always attacking the king side of the opponent. Good or bad. So kasparov in advance was playing for a draw. 1.d4 and 5.e3 what a joke again. this guy ain't playing serious against junior. kasparov became world champion with 1.e4 and black najdorf after 1.e4. Now he plays openings where he is no better than any other 2550+ GM (fide rating). Combined with some commercial interests into kasparovchess.com (what's in a name?) and the junior team also linked to kasparovchess. Also in the sure knowing that next year he'll get another match against a computer and if that ain't junior he'll try go beat it. What do i need to say more. he isn't 2800+ in those lines. knowing his considerations and his mentality struggle he'll be more like 2450 there. >I think we can say DJ's Bxh2 was an amazing move.
