| Kasparov : I played well.....I am adjusting to the
competition .... At one point I had excellent winning chances
against computers .. you have to play precise and very accurate. ... a position that looks like winning or better is just a half point. : I know that the opening choice of the computer was a challenge ..it was the same opening I played with deep junior in game one of the match, which I won very nicely. I had to solve a lot of technical problems …. It was not a simple position where I could win or draw ..the queens were on the board, my king was a little exposed … Not an easy task at all …I managed quite well , but in the end I missed something … Yassar Seirawan: it's remarkable to me that of all the GM , you seem to be happy even sacrificing material to the computer. you know your taking a big risk . why do you do it ? You seem to enjoy this pressure ? Kasparov : I am always looking for the best move in the position , .. and with conventional wisdom against the computer .. you go with a slow game.. try not to take risk … I play quite differently with machines.. in the openings , machines are quite good today .. If you don’t survive the opening … then you’ll be crushed …. I played the opening quite well, then I can use my advantage in understanding the position and projecting the trajectory of the game. So that’s why I am taking risks in the opening … so far it’s working… Kasparov : I wanted to win .. but I know I could have certain psychological problems dealing with this new technology .. that’s why I'm ... comfortable with the results.
