C01 French: Exchange Variation (1.d4 Nf6 2.Bg5 e6 3.e4 Be7 4.Nc3 d5 5.exd5 exd5)

The game below was played in a match that was played between Fighting Warriors and * The WOLF *. The match is called open Challenge # 122. This was played on 34 boards and I played on board 3 for * The WOLF *. The match ended with a score 23 - 45 in favor of * The WOLF *! There was quite a lot of timeouts in this match and we won on boards 1, 7, 9, 11, 12, 13, 17, 20, 23 and 30 both games on timeouts. And on five boards we won one of the games on timeouts, so we won 25 games on timeouts... In a match of this size, it is a huge amount of games basically forfeited only because players did not make their moves on time. We only lost one game due to a timeout, so we had more fighting spirit and wanted to win more than our opponent.
