Man vs. machine – but not Kasparov
While Garry Kasparov battles it out in New York against Deep Junior, back in Holland
the world's number eight (#8) player, Evgeny Bareev, is playing a four-game match
against the English program Hiarcs. The first two games ended in a draw, the next will
bring the decision. You can watch them live on the Playchess.com server.
