Thirteen years ago thirteenth chess champion beat the world,

weeks was even a lot more exciting and interesting than the two Deep Blue versus GK
six-game matches earlier, to anyone who followed the three of them all great sporting fare. In contrast, recent championship just concluded 2012 had Draws 10
and Decisive 2, and a technical tiebreak or blitz/rapids rather went to Anand.
