_Maybe_ GK got afraid of Deep Junior when he saw the way that it won against
Illecas.. Maybe GK thought that Deep Junior wasn´t that strong, but now it
proved to be a very very challenging competitor.
Of course this sounds very hard to believe but you can´t really be sure, you
have seen stranger things happend in the world of chess, specially with GK..
