	Garry Kasparov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kasparov's final Candidates match was against the resurgent Vassily Smyslov (who was randomly selected to advance after a 7-7 tie against Huebner by the spin of a roulette wheel at the quarterfinals, but soundly defeated Hungarian GM Zoltan Ribli at the semifinals).
		Kasparov showed he had learned some valuable lessons in the previous match, and although the score was quite even down to the final wire, a few spectacular games involving the Sicilian defence secured the World Championship for Kasparov at the tender age of 22 by a score of 13-11.
		Kasparov defended his title in 1995 against the Indian superstar Viswanathan Anand, which was held at the World Trade Center in New York City, before the PCA collapsed when Intel, one of the major backers, withdrew its sponsorship.

		GARY KASPAROV, Chess World Champion: I'm ashamed by what I did at the end of this match, but so be it.
		When Gary Kasparov plays against the computer, he has the feeling that it is forming plans; it understands strategy; it's trying to trick him; it's blocking his ideas, and then to tell him, now, this has nothing to do with intelligence, it's just number crunching, seems very semantic to him.
		And Kasparov is not kidding himself when he sees--when he confronts Deep Blue and feels that Deep Blue is, indeed, parroting his threats and recognizing what they are and trying to trick him, this is an entirely appropriate way to deal with that.

		Kasparov may have what he thinks is a sound strategy, he might even think he sees what Deep Blue is doing, but while chess games have continuity from move to move for humans, there is no continuity for computers.
		Kasparov does not think a computer that plays like the best human player will ever be possible, but he does not explain why he thinks so.
		Kasparov may never be beaten by Deep Blue, because before he has a chance to face the computer, he may be beaten by one of a number of young human players, such as Anand, Gata Kamsky, or Vladimir Kramnik.

		In May 1997, an IBM supercomputer by the name of "Deep Blue" beat world chess champion Gary Kasparov in a six-game match, throwing him and many others who believe in the supremacy of the human brain into a "deep" funk and a heavy analysis of what went wrong.
