Thanks, so I would guess that much computer analisys would be interesting to follow, and to see IF there really was a winning continuation for white.

I let the free Rybka and Toga finish the game and white eventually won. That doesn't really mean much, but even with less than four minutes left I think Anand had the better chances if he refused the draw.

You should have used the same engine for both sides. Anand being the better blitz player, I would have guessed that Anand had better chances.
