I don't know why but it looks like a blitz game for me. But still, I'm happy that there wasn't draw.

@Masquitice

Well, Topalov has promised two things going into this match:

1) He's not going to talk to Anand

2) He's not going to accept any draw offers

So, if he keeps his promise, we will see much fewer draws than in earlier championship matches!
