Kramnik v/s Fritz

With soporific games like this one between Kramnik and Fritz, we'll all be playing parchisi in a few years. If the sites didn't indicate who the players were, you couldn't tell the difference between the man and the machine, Kramnic was back to his old, esciting chess and Fritz....well, fritz was just fritz.

He is not going to win. I guess that he will draw.

Please, let me know if this works. Thanks.

Let's say Kramnik were to draw all of the games. Would that not still be quite a feat considering how many moves and positions the computer calculates per second? I think so.

Actally, there is no "broadcast" tab.

You click on the "broadcasts" line in the "Rooms" window , one of the windows that you'll get after logging in.

Does it work ?

What do you guys think Kramnik will play against the raging machine ?

Against e4 he'll play the Sicilian, hedgehog style.

Against d4 he'll go for a slav or semi-slav.

With white he'll probably go for d4 or c4.

What are your guesses ?

The Caro-Kann might be seen, since it has a tendency to be drawish, and you can't be dissapointed with a draw against a machine.

Game one looked like a GM draw.

I'm so curious to see what Kramnik will play with black ...... Caro-Kann is of course a possibility, but a Sicilian would be more spectacular, don't you think ?

I think we'll see e5 with either a Petrov or a Ruy Lopez Berlin.

What happens if the computer needs the bog ?

Quite possible. He plaid the "Berlin Wall" against Kasparov with great succes.
