Garry Kasparov as part of promoting his Chess in Schools campaign in Europe held a one day exhibition in Clichy. This was a sell out in the auditorium of the Lyceum Auffray. The event saw Maxime Vachier-Lagrave defeat Laurent Fressinet in a final 5m to 4m sudden death playoff game after two 5m+3spm blitz games (the first one is incomplete) were drawn for the right to play Kasparov. You'd have thought Kasparov would have been at a disadvantage with Vachier warmed up but he won a nice game with white in the Sicilian. Kasparov steered the second game to a draw by repetition and a win by 1.5-0.5. A final consultation game saw Vachier, paired with Laurent Baumel, beat Kasparov, paired with Anthony Delon. This latter game was a bit of fun and not a serious one.
