This game is mentioned is Feng's book on Deep Blue, but he calls me a mere "expert" (I was over 2200 at the time and was a moderate master class player) and does not mention my name (cause I upset him with some of my tauntings.) He also mentions that Deep Thought just walks into an easy checkmate, which was not the case at all.

Feng was a bit of an elitist, and there was absolutely no piece of advice you could share with him that he would take. I tried to tell him that the play of Deep Thought in its Center Counter was not that strong. I said it rather plainly, just offering friendly advice, and he said something like (in broken English with a bad accent) "In your weak mind maybe, but machine is high performance."

He started to walk away when I yelled after him "I will crush your machine if it plays the Center Counter and I am given white!" About 20 people heard this, and there was about 2 hours before the last round was to start, and he was convinved of his superiority, so he see up Deep Thought to play Game in 30 with me.

At this time, the program was doing about 700,000 nodes per second, still very fast.

He typed something into his opening book to avoid some of this book play, so I got it out of a main line. Even with its 14 and 15-ply search, it saw the win of a pawn, and no way for me to capitlize on it.

You can see my moves were a tad tactically complex, the thing that drives a program crazy (having multiple hanging pieces and offering more) so it finally succummed to the momentum of the attack.
