The exchange variation in the French Defense is considered to be drawish.  But not in this game!

Nice game, Jim! I played through it 3 times... I see you don't like your Knights: 13. Ne5! & 19.Nc5!

I went to see your blog and it is interesting, to say the least. I have added you to my favorites, but I will add a link at my blog. I studied the French for a little bit. I need to study the exchange variation some more. I have always played the Advance variation, but I decided to stop after I played it badly against a 2300 player a couple of months ago. May be I need to go the Exchange Way.
