Fritz has thumped the Iceman himself,
Vladimir Kramnik! The man known for
keeping his cool under intense pressure
has crumbled in game 6, to lose with the
white pieces. The score is now tied at
3 points each, with two games to go.
I am in total awe of Fritz7.
Furthermore, this game was won honestly
by Fritz, no horrifying blunders by the
human. Fritz demonstrated brilliant defence,
and the deadly calculating fearlessness for
which computers are so deservedly famous.
I guess we now get to call Kramnik
the slushman. {8^D
I actually hope for a draw Thursday. I want
to see how the world's best carbon unit does when
he goes into Saturday's game knowing if he
wins, a million bucks. Draw, half a million,
a loss, NaaaaDaaaaa! The pure drama is worth
the wait.
