Anand has some options at the stage: Bd2 which does not facilitate exchange of Queens this early in the game. Whereas with Ba3, we might see a quick draw!

Ted, if u don't mind, can u keep displaying the time remaining for both the players, from time to time.
(That's too many times the word time has been used in the sentence! ) :lol:

Ted, what happened? Did Anand play 22. fxe3 or did Kramnik offer a draw?

Surprisingly solid play by Kramnik. I guess he did not want to risk another loss. I predict draw by move 30.
