Man vs machine, game II

Gary Kasparov (the human!) commits a gross blunder, hanging a pawn, in an even position. The computer pounced and won. chessbase.com will be one source of information, try also www.X3dchess.com.

The bottom line: Two games left in the match, and I hope you knew to bet on the machine. At this point you have to conclude that Gary, while the best human chess player in the world, is not the best guy to put up against a computer. Too much emotional baggage, it would appear.
