Kasparov couldn't beat Deep Blue II and that machine was made 9 years ago, he
couldn't beat fritz 8, junior 8 which are a hundred elo points lower than rybka,
and kramnik couldn't beat DF7, also, Bareev couldn't beat HIARCS 9 BAREEV, which
is weaker than hiarcs 9 and hiarcs 10.  With super GM's historical track record
vs programs I certainly wouldn't bet on the humans.  Aside from that, man vs
machine championships, both of them were disasterous for the humans, infact
there is no evidence a human can beat even a mid range program in a match
setting. (not a modern program)
