Then Nb5! looks good for Kramnik. :wink:

The whole purpose was to exchange off queens and then offer a draw.

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!
