Come on...Gary Kasparov is probably the worlds strongest chess player. Of course
there can be no comparison or relation to that match - obviously, people wants
to pay a lot to see him play. Its really different with a player that has no
rating or no title.
Beating the computer twice seems like a fair bet to me. After all, it shouldn't
be about money, but about proving that you can beat the program in real time
online games - like in the games you have posted here.
