Only a draw with White? Levy "Gotham Chess" Rozman seems to have been more than happy with that, as he enthusiastically titled his daily review of the day "YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!".
He had good reason to be happy with his play - after all, in a strategically complex position he found creative and strong moves that put Cramling under pressure. However, the Swedish Grandmaster kept her calm and was able to neutralise the white threats and after 30 moves and an entertaining game the players agreed to a draw.
The action continues on Thursday 31 October at 15:00. In Game 4, Cramling has White and can try to extend her lead before Friday's rapid chess and Saturday's blitz.
