This week's Canadian Game of the Week comes from the May 7, 2016 Mississauga Standard.

A record 89 players entered the a one-day four-round event. The unusual Time Control of G/50 + 10s increment means that although it is possible to squeeze in four rounds in a day, the games are long enough to be rated as Standard. IM Razvan Preotu won the Open section with 4/4.

Our game comes from a lower board, which pitted 2014 CYCC U12 Champion Sergey Noritsyn against Mississauga Chess Club regular Tom Bark. The game starts as a Petroff, but turns into opposite side castling and pawn attacks. Who gets there first?
