But I will add, Kasparov has given us some good chess in this match, inspite of his loss today. Remember Deep Junior 8? He outplayed the machine all the way, but fell victim to a cheesy tactic and was so upset he failed to play the draw line...it's tough when the entire chess world is watching, and you need to redeem your reputation. He's far more upset than you are at this moment! He's disgusted with himself, after pulling out of a bind and leveling the playing field, even obtaining a small advantage, hence he outplayed Fritz, a very good show of strength. Then he pissed it all away by a simple oversight, remember his rook on f8 was protected twice and he fell victim to this fact, and cut off all protection by playing Rg7?? It happens at the highest level when fatigue sets in. One more thing, he's facing the machine and all involved aiding it...no mean feat! Overall he outplayed Fritz, just to wind up with the "short stick", I really think you need to ease up a bit.
