  Eric Schiller: Symmetrical pawn structure, only one open file, no weaknesses to work on. Draw is quite reasonable here.
Feb-20-09  fasting: draw is reasonable here since a 580 less rated player is offering it, even though his got an interesting position after: Rxd7 22. Nf5! fritz tells me its winning for white
22. ... Nh5 23. Nxh6+, Kh7 24. Qh4, Kxh6 24. Qg5+
Feb-20-09  Aspirador: <fasting> are you sure you are analyzing the right position? In your line

23.Nxh6+ gxh6 24.Qxh6 f6! and black is better.

Dec-16-09  Blunderdome: This was from an exhibition match when Howell was 11. Kramnik had won the first three and apparently was not bent on shutting out the kid.
Mar-25-14  Sho: How now?
