Title: Close-up showing Kasparov signature of chess board and pieces used in the Date: 1996 Dimensions: 7/8 x 23 x 23 in. Credit Line: Loan of Monroe Newborn Accession: L2005.3.1				Shown here is a game board from the 1996 match between Deep Blue and Garry Kasparov in Philadelphia. When playing Deep Blue, Kasparov frequently played a defensive style of chess that seemed to include an "anti-computer" strategy. As Grandmaster Vishwanathan Anand observed of Kasparov’s play in the 1997 rematch: "By trying so hard to avoid any position where Deep Blue might be able to calculate its way through, he effectively self-destructed."
