commentators has been that this position clearly favours White, but in my
opinion White only has a slight edge. True, Deep Blue has played the opening
in a way which appears very odd to human eyes, because it doesn't fit any of
the normal patterns for playing with Black against the English Opening.
Ideally, White would like to set his kingside pawns in motion, but it isn't
easy to achieve this. The f-pawn is pinned, and White cannot unpin it by
moving his queen, because then f3 would be hanging. Moreover, there is no
attractive square to put the queen (ironically, the move a2-a3 cuts out a
possible Qd2). Of course, White could play 15 g4 Bg6 16 f4, but then 16...exf4
17 Bxf4 Rae8 is fine for Black; he intends ...b5 and the f2-knight is badly
placed. White wants to play f4 without g4, so as to meet ...exf4 by gxf4. The
manoeuvre which Kasparov plays later in the game (involving Bh3) is not
possible here because 15 Bh3 loses a pawn to 15...Bxf3. Therefore Kasparov
gives up any immediate idea of kingside expansion, and opens a second front on
the queenside.} 15. b4 (15. Bh3 $2 Bxf3) (15. g4 $6 Bg6 16. f4 exf4 17. Bxf4

} Bg4 3. Bg2 Nd7 4. h3 Bxf3 {It is perhaps more common to play 4...Bh5. The
exchange on f3 concedes the two bishops at an early stage, but Black gains
time and this enables him to complete his development without difficulty.} 5.
Bxf3 c6 6. d3 e6 {Black's general strategy is clear: having given up his
light-squared bishop, he must use his central pawns to maintain some
light-squared control. This also avoids having his remaining bishop obstructed
by his own pawns.} 7. e4 $6 {White's general strategy is to play e4, which
serves two purposes. Firstly, it may help to break up Black's solid central
pawn structure, and secondly a later e4-e5 will gain space and may form the
basis of a kingside attack, should Black castle on that side of the board.
However, it is unusual for White to play e4 so quickly; the usual logic being
that e4 cannot be prevented, so White may as well play 0-0 and bring his king
into safety before taking action in the centre.} ({For example, in the game

is a good example of how Black can uses his lead in development and active

At one time this type of structure was thought good for White. However, the
current popularity of the Scandinavian Defence (1 e4 d5) depends on Black
accepting precisely this type of position. The central structure d4 v c6, e6
is very solid for Black. It is hard for White to open the position and
activate his two bishops. The current situation is more favourable for Black
than a typical Scandinavian position, first of all because White has yet to
advance his pawn to d4 and secondly because Black has a lead in development. I
do not believe that White has any advantage here.} Bb4+ 11. Nd2 h5 {A
surprising move from a computer, but a good one. The computer puts its finger
on the slight weakness created by the move h3. This means that after a later ..
.h4, White will be forced to either defend the g3-pawn or play g4, but then
the square f4 is accessible to Black's pieces, especially the knight on g6.

might also have played this move, but it is certainly interesting that Deep

1. Nf3 d5 2. g3 Bg4 3. b3 {Kasparov adopts a very quiet opening - not a bad
policy against a computer. Kasparov wählt eine sehr ruhige Eröffnung –
keine schlechte Politik bei Partien gegen einen Computer} Nd7 4. Bb2 e6 5. Bg2
Ngf6 6. O-O c6 7. d3 Bd6 8. Nbd2 O-O 9. h3 Bh5 {By a slightly riundabout route
we have reached a position which has occurred many times in master and
grandmaster chess. White's basic plan is to gain space in the ecntre with e4.
Black will sooner or later have to deal with the threat of e5, either by
moving his minor pieces out of the way, or by playing ...e5 himself. In the
latter case, there will be a slight weakness on f5 which might be able to
exploit by Nh4-f5. At the moment this last manoeuvre is impossible, because
the f3-knight is pinned, but this explains why one often sees the odd-looking
move Qe1 in this system: White wants to support the push of his e-pawn, while
at the same time freeing his knight from the pin. Auf Umwegen haben wir eine
Stellung erreicht, die man in vielen Meister- und GM-Partien findet. Der
weiße Plan besteht darin, im Zentrum Platz mit e4 zu gewinnen. Schwarz muß
früher oder später mit der Drohung e5 fertig werden, indem er entweder seine
Leichtfiguren aus dem Weg räumt oder selber ...e5 spielt. Im zweiten Falle
entsteht eine leichte Schwächung des Feldes f5, die Weiß mit Sf3-h4-f5
ausnützen könnte. Im Augenblick ist das Manöver natürlich unmöglich, da
der Springer gefesselt ist. Aber man versteht, warum der Weißspieler in
diesem System häufig zum merkwürdig aussehenden Zug De1 greift: Weiß will
den Vorstoß des e-Bauern unterstützen und gleichzeitig den Springer von der
Fesslung befreien.} 10. e3 {A very unusual move, indeed I can find no examples
of it from practical play. The normal moves here are 10 e4 and 10 Qe1. Of the
two, I would judge 10 e4 to be the more flexible. In this way White can
reserve the option of either Qe1 or Qe2, depending on Black's reply. The
merits of 10 e3 are rather hard to find; Kasparov soon adopts the Qe1 and e4
plan, but having lost a tempo in the process. Perhaps his idea was simply to
take DB out of its opening book. Ein sehr ungewöhnlicher Zug, für den ich
kein Beispiel in praktischen Partien finde. Die normalen Züge sind hier 10.e4
und 10.De1. Den ersten halte ich für den flexibleren. Weiß hält sich je
nach schwarzer Erwiderung die beiden Optionen De1 oder De2 offen. Der Vorteil
von 10.e3 ist nicht leicht zu erkennen. Kasparov wählt den Plan De1 nebst e4,
aber er hat dabei ein Tempo verloren. Vielleicht wollte er lediglich Deep Blue
aus dem Eröffnungsbuch werfen.} h6 {Kasparov's deviation at once earns its
reward. Instead of putting the extra tempo to use by developing queenside
counterplay, for example by 10...a5, the computer makes a pawn move which is
worse than useless, because it weakens the kingisde slightly. In a few moves
we will see the importance of this. Now that the extra tempo has been handed
back, the balance again slightly favours White and now the computer is on its
own. Kasparovs Abweichung trägt sofort Früchte. Statt das Extratempo für
die Entwicklung von Gegenspiel am Damenflügel, etwa mit 10...a5, zu nutzen,
macht der Rechner einen Zug, der schlimmer als wertlos ist, weil er den
Königsflügel etwas schwächt. In einigen Zügen werden wir sehen, warum das
so wichtig ist. Somit hat Weiß das Extratempo zurückerhalten, und die
Stellung ist günstiger für Weiß, besonders weil der Computer eigenständig
spielen muß.} 11. Qe1 Qa5 {The play of DB in the phase of the game leaves
much to be desired. It quite reasonably plans ...Ba3 to exchange off the
active bishop on b2, but this plan is easily countered and then the queen is
doing little on a5. Die Spielweise von Deep Blue in dieser Partiephase läßt
viel zu wünschen übrig. Der vernünftige Plan ...La3 mit Abtausch des
aktiven Läufers auf b2 wird leicht pariert, und danach hat die Dame keine
Zukunft auf dem Feld a5.} 12. a3 Bc7 $6 {And this is very odd. There are two
possible reasons behind this move. First of all, it may simply be anticipating
e4-e5 by White; secondly, DB may want to have its queen defended in case of a
line such as Ein merkwürdiger Zug, für den ich zwei mögliche Gründe sehe.
Zunächst einmal kann er in Erwartung eines weißen Bauernvorstoßes e3-e4-e5
gespielt worden sein; zum anderen könnte Deep Blue seine Dame decken wollen,

by ...e5. The prophylactic ...Bg6 is necessary in this case because otherwise .
..e5 can be met by Nh4. This is particularly strong because of the poor move ..
.h6, which means that after a possible exchnage of knight for bishop on g6,
Black cannot make the natural recapture with the h-pawn. Thus Black has to
play ...Bg6 in advance, ready to meet Nh4 by ...Bh7. In this phase of the game
DB just responds to each momentary problem on a move-by-move, without creating
any coherent plan for developing counterplay. In this respect Kasparov's
choice of opening appears very intelligent. bevorzugt, der auf e4 die Antwort .
..e5 vorbereitet. Das prophylaktische ... Lg6 ist dabei notwendig, da sonst ...
e5 durch Sh4 entkräftet wird. Das ist besonders effektiv nach dem schwachen
Zug ...h6, weil nach dem Abtausch des Springers für den Läufer auf g6
Schwarz nicht mit dem h-Bauern wiedernehmen kann. Somit muß Schwarz im voraus
...Lg6 spielen, um auf Sh4 mit ...Lh7 zu antworten. In dieser Partiephase
reagiert Deep Blue Zug für Zug auf jedes auftauchende Problem, ohne einen
zusammenhängenden Plan für Gegenspiel zu entwickeln. In dieser Hinsicht
scheint Kasparovs Eröffnungwahl sehr klug gewesen zu sein.}) 13. Nh4 {A
rather awkward move to meet. The threat is 14 g4 Bg6 15 Nxg6, and Black has to
make the ugly capture ...fxg6. Nevertheless, I think that this would have been
less serious than the further kingisde weakening resulting from Black's next
move. Ein unbequemer Zug. Die Drohung ist 14.g4 Lg6 15.Sxg6, und Schwarz muß
den häßlichen Schlagzug ...fxg6 ausführen. Dennoch glaube ich, daß es
weniger ernst gewesen wäre als die Schwächung des Königsflügels, die nun
folgt.} g5 $2 14. Nhf3 e5 {All this looks absolutely horrible to the human eye.
Having pushed both e- and g-pawns, the f5-square has become a serious weakness.
If White could plant a knight there, then the game would be decided. However,
DB isn't as stupid as that; there is no straightforward route by which a
knight can reach the key square. Nevertheless, this long-term weakness remains
a lasting burden for Black. Das sieht alles für das menschliche Auge ziemlich
schrecklich aus. Durch den Vorstoß der e- und g-Bauern ist das Feld f5 sehr
schwach geworden. Kann Weiß einen Springer dort plazieren, wäre die Partie
bereits entschieden. Ganz so dumm ist Deep Blue freilich nicht. Es gibt für
den Springer keinen direkten Weg zum Schlüsselfeld. Dennoch bleibt die
langfristige Schwäche eine bleibende Last für Schwarz.} 15. e4 {Kasparov at
once takes steps to fix the weakness on f5. Kasparov ergreift sofort
Maßnahmen, um die Schwäche von f5 festzuschreiben.} Rfe8 16. Nh2 {Kasparov
proceeds cautiously. His plan is Qc1, Re1 and then Nf1-e3-f5. This is rather
slow, but as White's position is solid if will be hard for Black to develop ny
real counterplay. Kasparov geht vorsichtig ans Werk. Sein Plan ist Dc1, Te1
und dann Sf1-e3-f5. Das ist ziemlich langsam, aber da die weiße Stellung sehr
stabil ist, wird es für Schwarz nicht leicht sein, ein echtes Gegenspiel
aufzuziehen.} ({So far as I can see, he could have started this plan
immediately with Soweit ich es beurteilen kann, hätte Weiß den Plan sofort
mit} 16. Qc1 {, since einleiten können, da} g4 {is not a worry because of
keine Drohung darstellt, denn Weiß könnte mit} 17. Nh4 {and the knight takes
a short cut to f5. den Springer auf kürzestem Weg nach f5 bringen.}) 16... Qb6
17. Qc1 a5 {At last DB hits upon a plan for developing counterplay, although
in this prticular position it is not very effective. The natural follow-up is .
..a4 to induce b4, and then ...c5. However, ...c5 is hard to arrange because
of the pressure on d5, and if Black exchanges first on e4, then the route
Nc4-e3-f5 is opened up for the knight on d2. We can see how, time and time
again, Black's naturalplans are frstrated because they would seriously expose
the weakness on f5. Endlich findet Deep Blue einen Plan, wie er Gegenspiel
erhalten kann. Allerdings ist der Plan in dieser Stellung nicht sehr effektiv.
Die natürliche Fortsetzung wäre ...a4, um b4 zu provozieren, wonach ...c5
folgt. Allerdings läßt sich ...c5 wegen des Drucks auf d5 nur schwer
durchsetzen, und wenn Schwarz zunächst auf e4 tauscht, dann ist der Weg für
Sd2-c4-e3-f5 offen. Wir sehen immer wieder in dieser Partie, wie die
natürlichen Pläne von Schwarz durch die Schwäche von f5 durchkreuzt werden.}
18. Re1 Bd6 19. Ndf1 dxe4 {Now that the knight has moved away from d2, the
possibility of Nc4 disappears and so this exchnage becomes feasible. However,
the kniught is already on its way to f5 by a different route. Jetzt, wo der
Springer von d2 weggezogen ist, verschwindet die Möglichkeit von Sc4, also
wird der Abtausch ausführbar. Aber der Springer ist bereits auf dem Wege nach
f5, allerdings auf einer anderen Route.} 20. dxe4 Bc5 21. Ne3 Rad8 22. Nhf1 {
Black has hit upon a good method of keeping the knight out of f5 , temporarily
at any rate. The f2-pawn is quite hard to defend, and until White nullfifies
the pressure against it along the b6-f2 diagonal, the knight cannot hop into
f5. Kasparov's idea is Nd2-c4; then, if Black wants to mainatin the pressure
against f2 he must play ...Qa7, but White continues with b4, exploiting the
line-up of a1-rook with the enemy queen, and Black is in trouble. Schwarz hat
eine gute Methode gefunden, den Springer von f5 fernzuhalten, jedenfalls
vorübergehend. Der f2-Bauer läßt sich schwer verteidigen, und bevor Weiß
den Druck auf der b6-f2 Diagonale neutralisiert hat, kann der Springer nicht
nach f5 hüpfen. Kasparovs Idee ist Sd2-c4; will Schwarz danach den Druck auf
f2 aufrechterhalten, muß er ...Da7 spielen, aber Weiß setzt mit b4 fort, und
da der a-Turm die Dame im Auge hat, gerät Schwarz in Schwierigkeiten.} g4 {
The computer desperately seeks to disturb White's plan. Although this move
creates further kingisde weaknesses, it enable Black to develop some piece
activity. This is the critical phase. Everybody who has played a computer
knows the scenario: you get a strategically winning position, the computer
makes some desperate tactical lunge, you make a couple of inaccuracies and
suddenly the machine is all over you. Der Computer versucht verzweifelt, den
weißen Plan zu stören. Obwohl dieser Zug weitere Schwächen am
Königsflügel bewirkt, bekommt Schwarz aktiveres Figurenspiel. Das ist eine
kritische Phase. Jeder, der gegen einen Computer gespielt hat, kennt das
Szenario: man bekommt eine strategische Gewinnstellung, der Computer macht
einen verzweifelten taktischen Vorstoß, man begeht einige kleine
Ungenauigkeiten, und plötzlich hat die Maschine die Oberhand.} 23. hxg4 Nxg4
24. f3 $2 {In this desire to achieve his straegic ends without making the
slightest concession, Kasparov commits an inaccuracy which allows the machine
to develop significant counterplay. Kasparov will seine strategischen Ziele
ohne Konzessionen erreichen. Er begeht infolgedessen eine ernsthafte
Ungenauigkeit und erlaubt, daß die Maschine signifikantes Gegenspiel bekommt.}

Black has manoeuvred his light-squared bishop to a reasonable active square.
For example 26 Qd1, heading for h5, is met by 26...Bd4. However, I think that
this was his best option; after nicht leicht ist, Fortschritte zu erzielen,
weil Schwarz seinen weißfeldrigen Läufer auf ein verhältnismäßig aktives

would find it hard to abandon the pressure on the b6-g1 diagonal, but the
computer ispots that the bishop has an even better square on g5, both
shielding the kingside weaknesses and pinning the e3-knight from a different
sirection. Ein hervorragender Verteidigungszug. Ein Mensch hätte es schwer
gefunden, den Druck auf der b6-g1 Diagonale aufzugeben, aber der Computer
merkt, daß der Läufer einen noch besseren Platz auf g5 hat, von wo aus er
die Schwächen am Königsflügel abschirmt und gleichzeitig den Springer auf

the e5-knight's attack on the g6-pawn means that the pawns cannot advance for
the moment. However, Kasparov's move makes it all clear; he can afford to take
his time, because Black has no constructive moves. The f3-bishop cannot move
because of f6 and f7+, the knight must stay on e5 to cover g6, and this ties
down the e8-rook too. The rook on d8 cannot achieve anything by itself, since
the d-file penetration squares are under control, which leaves only Black's
king. Auf den ersten Blick sollte die Stellung für Schwarz nicht allzu
schlecht sein, da der Springer auf e5 den Vorstoß des Bauern auf g6 für den
Augenblick verhindert. Kasparovs Züge machen indes klar, daß er in Ruhe
vorgehen kann, da Schwarz keine konstruktiven Züge hat. Der Läufer auf f3
kann wegen f6 und f7+ nicht ziehen, der Springer muß auf e5 verharren und g6
überwachen, was auch den Turm auf e8 bindet. Sein Partner auf d8 kann alleine
nichts ausrichten, da die Eindringfelder auf der d-Linie alle unter weißer

Qxc6, forcing an exchange of queens. After that there are many ways to win,

vorbereitet sein, hatte Kasparov doch genau so in der ersten Partie seines
Matches gegen DEEP JUNIOR gespielt.} Bb4 $5 {Dieser Zug wurde von Vladimir
Kramnik in die Paraxis eingeführt. Es sieht unlogisch aus, den Läufer ein
zweites Mal hintereinander zu ziehen, aber Schwarz strebt ein Spiel auf den
weißen Feldern an, dieses sind durch g2-g4 etwas geschwächt worden. Andere
Züge an dieser Stelle sind 7...Sxg4, 7...h6 und 7...dxc4.} (7... dxc4 8. Bxc4

Halt. Der Be3 ist isoliert und der weiße König steht angesichts der
halboffenen b-Linie auch nicht wirklich sicher. In den nächsten Zügen
tauscht Kasparov zweimal auf e4 ab, um die Lage etwas übersichtlicher zu
gestalten. Dadurch kommt aber andererseits Schwarz zu einer Konsolidierung
seiner Stellung. Ich untersuche zwei alternative Ideen:} 21. Ng3 (21. Qxc6 {

25. Rf4 Bd5 {Ziehen wir Bilanz der Tauschaktionen der letzten Züge: Schwarz
musste auf e4 mit seinem Bauern wiederschlagen, wodurch die Schwäche des Be3
etwas kaschiert wird. Andererseits konnte Schwarz seinen Läufer auf das
ideale Feld d5 bringen. Von dort deckt der Läufer die Bauern c6, f7 und e4
und wirkt auch noch nach a2 und b3, in Richtung des weißen Königs. Entlang
der b-Linie kann der schwarze Turm wirken. Schwarz hat keine direkte Schwäche,
deswegen gestaltet sich ein weiteres Vorkommen schwierig für Weiß. Sein
einziger Plan besteht darin, seine Bauern am Königsflügel nach vorne zu
bringen und so Linien gegen den schwarzen König zu öffnen (mit g2-g4-g5,
h2-h4-h5 und dann entweder h5-h6 oder g5-g6). Allerdings ist diese Idee
schwierig umzusetzen, denn mit dem Vorrücken der Bauern ergeben sich für
Schwarz (insbesondere für die schwarze Dame) neue Ziele für Gegenspiel. In
der Partie arrangiert Kasparov zunächst seine Dame und seinen Turm um, bevor
er zum Vormarsch der Bauern übergeht. Allerdings ist mir nicht klar, ob diese
Umgruppierung wirklich die weiße Figurenstellung verbessert. Ich untersuche
daher 26.Kb1:} 26. Qc5+ (26. Kb1 $5 Rb8 27. g5 (27. h4 $6 Qe7 28. g5 $2 Qa3 $1

Idee ...Da3 in der Luft.}) 30... Qd8 31. g5 Bxa2 {Schwarz darf natürlich
nicht tatenlos zusehen, wie Weiß am Königsflügel vorankommt. Aber der
Tausch des Ba2 gegen den Be4 ist befriedigend für Schwarz, da seine Dame in
die weiße Stellung eindringt.} 32. Rxe4 Qd3 33. Rd4 {Hier wird sich Kasparov

out of the opening, I drifted a little and the computer managed to get a small

placed. After a passive move like Re2, the position would have been unpleasant
but only slightly worse for White. Instead I decided to throw the machine off
balance and sacrifice an exchange, which was objectively terrible but
"psychologically" brilliant. At the time, it was understood by any strong
player with experience versus computers that their main weakness was...
tactics! In particular, combinations more than a few moves deep or involving
pawn promotion, as the case here.} 32. Ra2 $2 {A terrible move, but not an

A slightly embarrassing escape for me, I admit, but one that nevertheless
serves as an educational time capsule of the state of computer chess at the
time. Despite this swindle and a few other weak computer efforts, I wouldn't
want to diminish my own play entirely. Looking at all the games again, the
computers rarely blundered and it required energy and precision to make a
clean score against them on so many boards even 30 years ago.} 1-0

again? Wie in Partie vier. Will Garry das gleiche Hybridsystem wiederverwenden?
} 2. d4 d5 {No: Garry switches openings and opts for a genuine Caro-Kann. An
opening less suited to Garry's playing style could hardly be imagined, but at
least he is very familiar with it, having had many clashes with his old rival
Karpov, albeit on the other side of the board. Nein, er wechselt die
Eröffnung und wählt eine echte Caro-Kann-Verteidigung. Eine Eröffnung, die
weniger zum Kasparov-Stil paßt, kann man sich kaum vorstellen. Aber zumindest
kennt er sie einigermaßen gut, denn er hat sie in zahlreichen Begegnungen mit
seinem alten Rivalen Karpov gespielt - allerdings auf der anderen Seite des
Brettes!} 3. Nc3 dxe4 4. Nxe4 Nd7 5. Ng5 {Ironically, Deep Blue uses the same
system which Kasparov used to play himself against Karpov. Eine Ironie des
Schicksals, daß Deep Blue das gleiche System benutzt, das Kasparov gegen
Karpov anwandte.} Ngf6 6. Bd3 e6 7. N1f3 h6 $2 {But Karpov never played like
this! This move forces White to sacrifice a piece, but the resulting attack is
so dangerous that there are almost no human players willing to take Black's
side. This line seems particularly inadvisable against a computer: a wide-open
position, tactical ideas on all sides and a vicious attack for the silicon
monster. 7... Bd6 is normal. So hat Karpov aber nie gespielt! Dieser Zug
zwingt Weiß, eine Figur zu opfern, der entstehende Angriff ist aber so
gefährlich, daß es kaum noch menschliche Spieler gibt, die das mit Schwarz
spielen. Die Variante ist besonders unangebracht in Partien gegen den Computer.
Sie ergibt völlig offene Stellungen mit vielen taktischen Ideen und
fürchterlichen Angriffsmotiven - alles genau das Falsche gegen ein
Silikonmonster. 7...Ld6 ist normal.} 8. Nxe6 Qe7 $2 {After this Black is just
lost. The score in over-the-board play tells a grim story: 13/14 for White.
According to current theory, Black's last attempt to survive in this line is 8.
..fxe6 9 Bg6+ Ke7 10 0-0 Qc7 11 Re1 Kd8. At the cost of losing a tempo with
his king, Black avoids having his queen stuck at e7, where she blocks in the
whole of Black's kingside. With the queen on c7, the bishop on f8 can move and
Black has somewhat more freedom. Having said that, White's attack is still
very dangerous, but it is by no means a forced win. Danach ist Schwarz
schlicht verloren. Die Statistik zeigt eine niederschmetternde Bilanz: in 13
von 14 Partien hat Weiß gewonnen.} ({Nach der heutigen Theorie besteht die

few examples should demonstrate the true horror of Black's situation: Ein
neuer Zug, aber nicht einer, der diese Variante wiederbeleben dürfte. Die
Idee ist, das Feld d5 für den Springer zu bekommen, der sonst mit c2-c4
vertrieben werden konnte. Aber der Zug gibt Weiß Gelegenheit, weitere Linien
am Damenflügel zu öffnen und seinen a1-Turm à tempo ins Spiel zu bringen.
Ferner bleibt das Hauptproblem von Schwarz weiter bestehen: er kann die Dame
nicht bewegen. Das einzige Feld für sie ist b4, aber das läßt nicht nur den

Time Magazine's correspondent Charles Krauthammer wrote: "Deep Blue's king was
under savage assault by a World Champion. Any human Any human under such
assault by a world champion would be staring at his own king trying to figure
out how to get away. Instead, Deep Blue ignored the threat and quite
nonchalantly went hunting for lowly pawns at the other end of the board. In
fact, at the point of maximum peril, Deep Blue expended two moves - many have
died giving Kasparov even one - to snap one pawn. It was as if, at Gettysburg,
General Meade had sent his soldiers out for a spot of apple-picking moments
before Beckett's charge, because he had calculated that they could get back to
their positions with a half-second to spare. In humans, that is called
sangfroid. And if you don't have any sang, you can be very froid. But then
again if Meade had known absolutely - by calculating the precise trajectories
of all the bullets and all the bayonets and all the cannons in Pickett's
division - the time of arrival of the enemy he could, indeed, without fear,
have ordered his men to pick apples. Which is exactly what Deep Blue did. It
had calculated every possible combination of Kasparov's available moves and
determined with absolute certainty that it could return from its pawn-picking
expedition and destroy Kasparov exactly one move before Kasparov could destroy
it. Which it did. It takes more than nerves of steel to do that. It takes a
silicon brain. No human can achieve absolute certainty because no human can be
sure to have seen everything. Deep Blue can."} Ne5 30. Qd5 f3 31. g3 Nd3 {

adopts a rather antiquated and passive defence known as the Smyslov Variation.
White's basic plan is to play d4 and then Sbd2-f1-g3. This securely defends
his central pawn structure, while making it possible for his remaining pieces
to be developed. The current thinking is that Black should obstruct this plan,
and the best way to do this is to adopt the Zaitsev System, in which Black
plays Kasparov wählt eine etwas antiquierte und passive Verteidigung, die
Smyslov-Variante. Der Grundplan von Weiß besteht darin, d4 und anschließend
Sbd2-f1-g3 zu spielen. Damit wird seine Bauernstruktur im Zentrum sicher
verteidigt, während gleichzeitig die übrigen Figuren entwickelt werden
können. Die herrschende Meinung ist, daß Schwarz den Plan mit dem
Zaitsev-System (9... Lb7 10.d4 Te8 11.Sbd2 Lf8) durchkreuzen sollte. Der Druck

impossible (as 12...exd4 would win a pawn), and so the knight must stay on d2.

very sharp and double-edged positions.}) 10. d4 Re8 11. Nbd2 Bf8 12. Nf1 {

Deep Blue blocks the centre, even though blocked centres are supposed to
favour humans over computers. However, the machine's play in this game shows
that Deep Blue suffers from this defect far less than other computers. Deep
Blue blockiert das Zentrum, auch wenn das für den menschlichen Spieler
Vorteile bringen soll. Die weitere Partieführung zeigt, daß dieser Rechner
weit besser in solchen Stellungen klarkommt als die anderen Schachprogramme.}
Ne7 17. Be3 {This is a theoretical position which has occurred a number of
times in grandmaster chess. The earlier games suggest that White is slightly
better, but with very accurate play Black retains equalising chances. The
first point to note is that Black faces more problems on the queenside than
the kingside. The e7-knight can move to g6, when Black has sufficient minor
pieces to defend the kingside. The queenside, on the other hand, is looking a
little bare. White's aim is to play a4 and b4. If Black is forced to play ...
c4, then White will have a virtually guaranteed advantage. He can double or
even triple on the a-file, and Black will probably be forced to concede the
a-file. In view of Black's total lack of counterplay elsewhere, this could be
very unpleasant for him. Moreover, the move ...c4 opens up the e3-a7 diagonal
for White's bishop, which would then control squares in the very heart of
Black's position. As Black's dark-squared bishop is locked away on f8, there
would be no means by which Black could contest this control. It follows that
Black must avoid meeting b4 by ...c4. This implies that his queen and rooks
belong on the queenside, supporting the c5-square and being prepared to seize
open files if pawn exchanges occur. Das ist eine theoretische Stellung, die
häufig genug im Großmeisterschach vorgekommen ist. Die früheren Partien
legen nahe, daß Weiß etwas besser steht, aber mit genauem Spiel behält
Schwarz Ausgleichschancen. Man sollte sich als erstes vergegenwärtigen, daß
Schwarz am Damenflügel die größeren Probleme besitzt. Der Springer auf e7
kann nach g6 ziehen, wonach Schwarz genügend Leichtfiguren hat, um den
Königsflügel abzusichern. Am Damenflügel dagegen sieht es karger aus. Weiß
will a4 und b4 spielen. Falls Schwarz gezwungen ist, ...c4 zu spielen, hat
Weiß fast immer einen Vorteil. Er kann auf der a-Linie verdoppeln oder sogar
verdreifachen, so daß Schwarz gezwungen ist, diese Linie aufzugeben.
Angesichts des Fehlens jeglichen Gegenspiels ist das sehr unangenehm. Ferner
öffnet der Zug ...c4 die e3-a7-Diagonale für den weißen Läufer, der
anschließend die wichtigsten Felder der schwarzen Stellung kontrolliert. Da
der schwarzfeldrige Läufer auf f8 eingesperrt ist, kann Schwarz wenig dagegen
unternehmen. Aus all dem folgt, daß Schwarz es vermeiden muß, auf b4 ...c4
spielen zu müssen. Also muß er seine Dame und die Türme am Damenflügel
behalten, um das Feld c5 zu stützen und die offenen Linien zu besetzen, falls
Bauern abgetauscht werden.} Ng6 {This is not really wrong, although other
players have given preference to arranging the queenside pieces, for example

bevorzugen, z.B.} (17... Qc7 {17...Qc8 and 17...Nc8 have also been played, but

Kasparov to believe that the computer would not undertake direct aggressive

then Black can try to play ...e5. If he succeeds in this plan, Black will have
a majority of pawns in the centre. The second plan is to attempt a queenside

general opening up of the kingisde, when White's rooks appear well-placed on
h1 and g1. The move played leaves Black with doubled and isolated pawns,
supposedly the chess-player's worst nightmare. However, White also has serious
structural weaknesses; the pawns on g4 and h4 aren't doing much and, even more
seriously, his f3-knight and f2-pawn are vulnerable to pressure down the
f-file.} 18. Rg3 {Deep Blue takes steps to defend the exposed knight, but the

immobilised by the pressure along the f-file, since the f2-pawn is
insufficiently defended. Garry has excellent compensation for his slight
kingisde pawn weaknesses in the form of active piece-play - just the type of
situation in which he normally plays very well.} 20. Nd1 $1 {Deep Blue finds
an excellent counter to Black's plan. Although this looks passive, the knight
wasn;t doing much on c3 and it is much more usefully employed defending the
f2-pawn. This frees the f3-knight for action; in some lines White might be
able to play Ne5.} e5 $5 {An amazing pawn sacrifice. The logic behind this is
that there are only two things wrong with Black's posiiton: the backward
e6-pawn and the poorly plaved kngith on c7, which has few active prospcets
(the g-pawns are not a significant factor provided Black's pieceds remain
active, as White will not have the freedom of action to exploit them). By
giving up a pawn, Black solves both these problems at a stroke. The c7-knight
can move to e6, and then either to f4 or to c5 and then e4. It is certainly a
bold stroke to offer a pawn against a computer, as machines (like Kortschnoj)
have the annoying habit of hanging on to material. Very good judgement by
Kasparov!} ({Another factor is that an alternative plan is hard to find.} 20...

be able to expel the knight from c5 without it landing on e4. However, the

sight of this reckless advance.} Nd7 25. Qd3 Qf7 26. b5 {Having played b4 to
keep the knights out of c5, it is of course inconsistent to let them back in

{Bei der Bearbeitung dieser Partie konnte ich auf Analysen von Christopher
Lutz (Chessgate) und Vladimir Barsky (chesstoday.net) sowie auf diverse
Livekommentare zurückgreifen. Als ich fast fertig war, habe ich auch noch
Garry Kasparovs Express-Kommentare auf worldchessrating.com eingesehen. Mir
ist aufgefallen, dass teilweise recht harsch kritisiert wird. M.E. gib es in
dieser Partie jedoch nur einen einzigen klaren Fehler, das war der Verlustzug
von Schwarz. Bei vielen Zugkommentaren kommt hingegen nur der unterschiedliche
Geschmack bzw. das jeweilige Schachverständnis der Beobachter zum Ausdruck.}

dass Kasparov nun stets ein Auge auf e5-Einschläge haben muss. Der Läufer

steht außerdem vor einem kleinen Dilemma: Soll er nun "folgerichtig" mit 16...

sind die Folgen auch extrem negativ. Fritz sieht auch hier sofort seine

praktischen Auswirkungen dieser Fehlkalkulation gering, denn ein weißer
Bauernzug am Königsflügel steht nicht an.} 18. exf5 Qxf5 {Nun ist endgültig

tense and fascinating! Dieses Luftloch sichert das Remis. Insgesamt eine
starke Leistung von Kasparov, wenn man vom groben Einsteller in der 2. Partie
absieht. Die Frage, ob Mensch oder Maschine im Schach stärker ist, bleibt
also weiter offen. Die nächsten Wettkämpfe werden sicher wieder spannend
