Thanks. We have two open issues. 1. My question about the first game in '97. Why Kasparov couldn't repeat his dominating play against DB2? Was a general question about the apparent twist in the match after the first game. BTW the mistakes of the machine were widely analyzed and "accepted", as far as game 1 is concerned. Could you comment on the mistakes, the twist and their reasons? 2. The Eduard Nemeth bet. Ok, fine. I talked to him via chat and he says he wants 30 minutes games. But since he hasn't really understood yet our debate here, he tought that it was a challenge from your side out of the blue, and his first question was "how much money for each point". Well, I promissed him 200 € (euro) from _my_ side, but explained that 10 game only wouldn't be enough, it should be about 20 or 30 games overall. Could you please comment a little bit from your knowledge about similar "bets" on ICC and the probable outcome? I mean would you say that GM Roman would win 1 pt. pro 10 games trivially or is that already difficult for him in 30' games? Another technical problem was for Eduard, who never played on ICC, that he thinks he could only play on the new FRITZ server. Well, what is your opinion to the technical problems. Could it be made possible to connect the two servers for the little event? Or would you also say, what I have told Eduard, that the two servers are probably similar for the players. Ahm, I remember, Fritz server has a direct connection between the players, where you know exactly how long the delay and stuff like this. Please give us your judgement, it could be interesting for many potential players from Europe. And to the chess results, would you mind giving a border line, Eduard in your opinion could not overstep, e.g. 2 pts. or something? Final question, and please just for the German player who gives so much heart blood into computerchess, what could be the prospects for someone like Eduard (understood that he might even win 3 pts/10 games) in the world of CC? Thanks a lot for your answers Rolf Tueschen
