I've seen a game in a database where Kasparov lost a knight in the first 10-15 moves vs nigel short. Nobody knows all of the opening theory. Blunders are still common among humans, and in a series of (boring) draws, one mistake and a loss makes it very hard for the human to win! 8 Zhu, Chen g CHN 2493 13 1976-03-16
