Kasparov, Computer Draw in Fifth Game
From Times Wire Reports
Garry Kasparov, the world’s top-rated chess player, and computer opponent Deep Junior tied the fifth game of their Man vs. Machine series, playing just 19 moves.
The six-game series remains tied at 2 1/2 games apiece. The final game of the match -- which could end in a draw -- is set for Friday.
In the 10th move of the game, the Israeli-programmed Deep Junior sacrificed, or exposed, its bishop to Kasparov’s king to draw the piece into a vulnerable position.
