Kasparov draws game 2 vs computer
Garry Kasparov had to settle for a draw against the Deep Junior in game 2 of the Man vs. Machine World Chess Championship. Kasparov offered a draw after the computer made a tactical queen sacrifice on move 29. More info available at http://www.fide.com.
For those of you geeky enough to understand chess notation, here is the game score:
DEEP JUNIOR - Kasparov,G (2847)
B42 Sicilian Defense - Paulsen Variation
FIDE Man-Machine WC New York USA (2), 28.01.2003
1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 a6 5.Bd3 Bc5 6.Nb3 Ba7 7.c4 Nc6 8.Nc3 d6 9.0-0 Nge7 10.Re1 0-0 11.Be3 e5 12.Nd5 a5!? 13.Rc1 a4 14.Bxa7 Rxa7 15.Nd2 Nd4 16.Qh5!?! An interesting move. How will it turn out though? 16. ..Ne6 17.Rc3 Nc5 18.Bc2 Nxd5 19.exd5 g6 20.Qh6 f5 21.Ra3 Qf6 22.b4 axb3 23.Rxa7 bxc2 24.Rc1 e4 25.Rxc2 Qa1+?! Maybe this won't turn out to have been the best. Kasparov may be winning here with perhaps 25. ..f4. 26.Nf1 f4 27.Ra8 e3 28.fxe3 fxe3 29.Qxf8+ Kxf8 30.Rxc8+ Kf7 ½-½
