Kasparov + "unknow factors", lost a match for DBII. Kasparov rarely commits against human, the errors that committed in the two games where he lost. Which would be then these "unknow factors"? In my opinion, probably fatigue and psychological factors that only occur in "Human x machines" games. You are a professional in this area, what you think respect of those "unknow factors"?
