For this reason I would expect a 3,5 : 2,5 at the very moment. But it could be even 4 : 2, as game 2 is still completely open with a more comfortable game for Black though objectively may be equal play for both sides. On the other hand Nickel has to face a difficult defence in game 4. So there can still happen a lot. As the match is organised by the German magazine "Computerschach & Spiele" and played on chessfriend.com most discussion are in German on "computerschach.de". Besides you will find discussions on the TCCMB board of "ICCF.com" (International Correspondence Chess Federation, official site). Uwe
