Hydra is a formidable opponent, but my impresion is that the main treasons some grandmasters have found so hard to tame the monster, is that they had renounced the fight to impose their personal style and vision of the game (when they have one) so becoming too much preocupated for the opponent. To win against he computer, you have to have a great understanding of the game more an undisturbed conviction of being championing the truth. Fischer fulfilled these conditions. Certainly Fischer could lose due to tiredness or insufficient training. At sixty, one could lose a match to an inferior opponent. After all, Steinitz lost to Lasker in 1894 despite his vast strategical superiority over his younger opponent. Telmo
