thanks for the answers.
there is a difference between "typical computer moves" (not necessary bad) and
mistakes. Several people have proven that Junior made some serious mistakes in
the match, Kasparov too.
Junior didnt succeed in keeping the initiative with white pieces. Kasparov
equalized in all three games easily with black pieces.
Yes, even in game 4.
Much weaker player are able to do the same and they are happy with a draw.
