In the game of kasparov the human blundered in a known position from theory.
In  this case I understand that Fritz played a novelty Bh6.

In the game of kasparov computers evaluate the position after Nxe6 of deeper
blue as better for black when in this case I found that the evaluation of
computers show advantage for white.

I think that the kind of position that Fritz came out of the opening is better
for computers and probably Fritz could practically win another GM from the
position after Bh6

I think that the practical mistake of the sokolov was that it chose a bad
opening.
Instead of playing Nxe4 going to open spanish it was better to play for close
positions with Be7.
