Apr-11-05		dragon40: Game 5 of the 1995 WC Match. The King book says here that <The players agreed to a draw here. There is not much more to play for after 28. Qxd5, Bxb6; 29. axb6 Qxb6; 30. Qc4, when the most likely scenario would be that all the QSide pawns would be exchanged, leaving the position stone-cold dead>. Match score after this game was 2.5-2.5
