I tend to disagree and think he had a solid advantage after Kramnik's blunder,
but Kramnik's timing in his draw offer was also absolutely perfect as well. He
had held a tenuous advantage for most of the game, and Leko had suffered trying
to hold the position. In one move, the tide changed completely, but it is
extremely difficult to change one's mindset from grim defense to grinding a win.
