10/19/2002 – Saturday October 19, 12:00h GMT (14:00h CET, 8 a.m. NY): it's Judgement Day, the final decisive game in the match that pits human and machine intelligence in the game of chess. The socre after seven games is 3.5:3.5. World Champion has the white pieces and a slight advantage. But Fritz is the player that will not feel the pressure. You can watch the game on our live coverage sites.
