No Kasparov blundered, and lost control of the game...he could have played
better but his will was crushed. I remember as soon as he made his finger
slip he buried his face in his hands, he wasn't very happy at all. Kasparov
didn't allow the sac on purpose, it's too complicated after 7.Nxe6! and that
was the last thing Kasparov wanted in his last game, unclear variations.

Joel Benjamin intentionally added 7.Nxe6 to Deep Blues Book in the event
Kasparov happen to play the Caro-Khan and in the way he played it.

Joel is Psychic!;-)
