hi all
while i do not subcribe to the theory that the recent match was fixed,i have
been complaining bitterly ever since Kaspy tanked the final game  in the
previous match(offered draw in won position)that he is waaay to concerned with
the prize money to make a fight of the match

i think the only way to insure that he fights in EACH  and every game is to pay
prize money  for WINS only..not for draws and of course not for losses
in addition he would be reimbursed for all of his expenses to attend the match


now i realize of course that the great one would bitterly reject prize money
conditions like that, because he feels he  deserves to be paid just for showing
up(appearance fee)

but i am fairly certain that there are MANY  other super GM'S that would be more
then willing to accept those conditions

i am betting that many GM'S are a bit impatient watchnig Kaspy play Fritz again
and again ,collecting check after check

if Kaspy can deposit a check for  each and every win i think we would see a REAL
match
no quick draws,no tanks..just fighting chess
