Re: World Chess Championship (Game 8)
Then Nb5! looks good for Kramnik. 

Now cracks a noble heart.—Good night, sweet Princess, And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!

Re: World Chess Championship (Game 8)
Which prevents the exchange. Had the macth score been level, Nb5 it was.
But Kramnik wants the Queens on the board... for now.
After all, he has nothing to loose now.
And nb5 is still coming!
