What would the reponse of this >forum be? So when (if?) Kasparov plays Ponomariov later this year, how many games are we going to expect them to play to determine who is the champion and who is considered "the best player in the world?" They each have a differing amount of time to prepare, they can each afford a different level of preparedness, each has different teams of minions to prepare their opening repertoire/lines of play/strategies, one will be more tired/pressured than the other. One will win. At Leiden each computer team had a differing amount of time to prepare, each could afford a different level of preparedness, each team had different people of different skills to prepare the opening repertoire/tune the engine for strategy, each computer played on differently powered hardware. One won. Jason W.
