| | Garry Kasparov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Garry Kimovich Kasparov (Га́рри Ки́мович Каспа́ров, pronounced with stress falling on the second syllable: kas-PA-rov) (born April 13, 1963) is a chess grandmaster and one of the strongest chess players in history. |  | | Fellow players predicted a 6-0 whitewash of Kasparov within 18 games. |  | | In this position after move 23 in the 1999 Corus tournament game between Kasparov and Topalov, Kasparov (white) appears to be in a weaker position, but a stunning rook sacrifice followed by precise endgame play secures Kasparov a victory. |

 | | Kasparov may never be beaten by Deep Blue, because before he has a chance to face the computer, he may be beaten by one of a number of young human players, such as Anand, Gata Kamsky, or Vladimir Kramnik. |  | | Kasparov missed a move (move 15) that would have won him the game. |  | | Kasparov does not think a computer that plays like the best human player will ever be possible, but he does not explain why he thinks so. |

 | | But the champ was clearly shaken--by game two, which he should have played to a draw, but mistakenly resigned instead; by game five, a draw the computer forced, though Kasparov had the advantage; and by the computer's seeming ability to play human-like strategies. |  | | In this year's rematch, Kasparov was even with the new improved super duper supercomputer going into yesterday's contest. |  | | After just an hour of playing, instead of the usual four or so, Kasparov resigned the game and, thus, the match. |
