Presented by the Masters of ChessLecture.com, this chess lecture volume examines Vladimir Kramnik’s second six-game match against Deep Fritz version 10 in Bonn, Germany from November 25 to December 5, 2006.
Kramnik lost the match 4–2, with two losses and four draws. The series also covers the computer’s setup, including two Intel Xeon CPUs, a Xeon DC 5160 3 GHz processor, 1333 MHz FSB, 4 MB L2 cache, and an engine able to evaluate eight million positions per second. It includes discussion of the opening book, the restricted five-piece endgame tablebases, and Kramnik’s access to Fritz’s display while the program was in book.
ChessLecture masters GM Jesse Kraai, IM Bill Paschall, and IM David Vigorito analyze the historical event, the computer’s limitations, and Kramnik’s steering of games into those weaknesses. Content runs 3 hours and 10 minutes across 7 lectures, with ECO: D26, E03, D20, C43, E51, B90.
