For once I have to agree with Uri: Deep Sjeng said it was a drawish,
but slightly better for black as he could choose when and where to
break. You could offer a draw, but the opponent wouldn't accept
anyway as he is at +1 for him. And you know that when he tries to
win you have good chances to swindle.

Which is exactly what happened in the game.

Offering a draw would have been a blunder.
