Maybe this time he'll fight it out all the way...

Can't critisize the man for chickening out. His losses had to affect the man's psyche. I mean, the thing doesn't tire out and doesn't get scared that it's facing the best human player ever. Also, Gary's crisp attacking style doesn't exactly go with the computer's precise defense. The last game he may have been better, but think about it. He said he missed the computer neat Bc1-a3 maneuver also. 😀

Ah Garry, always trying to get a piece of the spotlight. I really fail to see how a three dimensional representation of a chessboard (an inherently two dimensional game) would constitute much of an advantage - especially considering that he's now going up against a more powerful engine than before.

Here's a question - should you ever play a gambit against a computer? Will a computer always be always to equalize position and beat you strictly on material?

I don't know. It would screw up it's opening book and get it out of all the theory and if it's reasonably sound than I suppose it's ok. Although the computer's stiff defense may be a problem! 😀

You think a computer's opening book doesn't contain gambits?😕
Or am I misunderstanding it again??🙄

believe me, some of my gambits aren't in any database 😉
