Deep Blue

TODO

Fun fact: Deep Blue was firstly named Deep Thought, after the computer in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, however it had to be renamed because the name too much resembled deep throat.

It wasn't really a general chess engine like stockfish, it was really programmed specifically for winning the match against Kasparov, it focused on his play and employed even psychological tricks -- for example it had preprogrammed instant responses to some Kasparov's expected moves, so as to make him more nervous.
