The Revenge - Kasparov versus Genius


At 5:25pm EDT on Saturday May 20th, Gary Kasparov will play a souped up
Mephisto Genius (Genius Experimental) running on a 120MHZ Pentium.
The match (sponsored by Intel) is being played in Cologne Germany.
Two games at 25 0 time control will be played.

In their previous encounter, Genius took the 2-game match 1.5-0.5.
This is Gary's chance for revenge, and this time he may be better prepared.
But he's up against a faster computer, and improved software.

This should be a REALLY EXCITING event.  The actual match will have
been played several hours before, but the results will not be known
until our broadcast.  For all practical purposes it is a LIVE event.

We will have master commentary about the match as it unfolds.  Look for
players "GMKasparov" and "GeniusExp".
