[Event "New York (6th matchgame)"] [Site "masterchessopen.com"] [Round "0"] [White "COMP Deep Blue"] [Black "Kasparov, G."] [Result "1-0"] [ECO "B15"] [Opening "Caro-Kann: 4.Nxe4"] 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 dxe4 4.Nxe4 Nd7 5.Ng5 { This amused spectators because Kasparov had used this variation as White, so the computer managed to strike a psychological blow! } 5...Ngf6 6.Bd3 e6 7.N1f3 h6 { At the time of the game this move had a dubious reputation with White enjoying a lot of success after the subsequent sacrifice. Since then plenty of people have tried to defend the position without much success, which suggests that Black has already gone seriously wrong. The reason why Kasparov chose this line is still shrouded in mystery. However, American grandmaster, Joel Benjamin, was part of the support team for IBM. He told me that Kasparov had probably tested other chess software in this position and they all played 8 Ne4. It seems Kasparov gambled and lost. } ( 7...Bd6 { is the sound alternative. } ) {#r} 1-0
