Who's Garry Kasparov?
Garry Kimovich Kasparov is a chess grandmaster and former World Chess Champion. His 2851 Elo rating in the July 1999 FIDE rating list is the highest rating ever achieved. On the January 2006 FIDE listing, Kasparov's 2812 ELO rating ranked him first in the world (although he was removed in April of that year due to inactivity). Ranked first in the world a record 23 times between 1985 and 2006, Kasparov was the last undisputed World Chess Champion from 1985 until 1993; and continued to be "classical" World Chess Champion (of the PCA and WCA) until his defeat by Vladimir Kramnik in 2000. He also won the Chess Oscar eleven times.

Played against deep blue (lead to the question "who is deep blue?"😉

IQ of 190.

It's an official charity auction you ****

As far as I can tell it is for the chance to play Kasparov [he playing simultaneously] on 20th April in a New York charity event.
So you may have missed your chance - even if you won the auction.
No refunds - sorry.
