đ 17...Nh5
Kramnik threatens to plant his knight on g3 (which picks off the exchange) or f4 (which accelerates all kinds of attacking possibilities). From this point until the moment White resigns, every single Black move contains some kind of threat.
17...Bb5 This move is a waste of time because of 18.a4.
17...Bc5? This move not only exchanges the mighty black Bishop but also puts the e5-pawn in jeopardy: 18.Bxc5 dxc5 19.Nc4.

đ 22.Ne3!

22.Rc2? Nb6! 23.Nxb6 Rxb6 24.Rd1 Kg7 25.Bb3 with an equal game.
22.a3? This move only helps black to fix white b2-pawn and push his b-pawn further: 22...b3!.
