He plays usually matches like this as if he's having holiday, but i hope he minds to win this match. I remember how he quickly got a draw against junior in world champs99 just by playing a book line in poisened pawn with black. This is the problem with all the world top. They are just too happy with a draw with black. >(Yes, it's very easy to forget that a match is always decided by a whole number >of points.)
