An interview with vladimir kramnik after his 2002 match with fritz
=============================================================================

You are one of the few people on the planet who knows what it is like to be
2800. Is Fritz really 2800?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You can say Fritz is 2800, but you cannot measure it by numbers really. It's
very strong, it's very very strong. But it depends on many things, especially
the opening. In some positions, if it gets its positions you can make a draw or
you can lose, two choices; you can never win. In some positions its 3000. Maybe
you can suffer and make a draw. 10 Kasparovs and 20 Anands wouldn't help you in
these positions.

So on the average you can say 2800 or a bit more, but it matters what you get.
If you get a position like what I had in game five then no human can fight it.
But if you get what I had in game two then you have a chance. It very much
depends on the opening stage.
