The European Club Cup this year is incredibly strong both in Open and Women event! We play and live in a very good hotel, the food is great and I was able to start the tournament with a win against GM Lahno (2554 ELO, 5th rated in Top 100 women in the world)! The game turned out to be very interesting with pawn sacrifices on my part. Here it is:
