This was an epic battle. Wojtek has had a massive rating jump lately. He surprised me with several moves. I was lucky to have stumbled onto a winning method just in time.
9.L9 was my first surprise. It attacked my N7 more effectively than I realized.

I was prepared for
17.p19 18.p20 19.s22 20.r23 21.t20 22.t18 23.u19 24.v21 25.w20 26.v22
Isn't that pretty? Maybe it could be made into a puzzle. But to my amazement, wojtek saw all that, and instead attacked on the left with e17!
My h11 was not the best. I forgot about his n20 threat. This is not the way to play against wojtek. Maybe
|18.g16 19.d15 20.g12 would have been better.
27.c18! was another surprise, the most efficient way to give me maximum problems.
I could not play 32.j7 33.i8 34.h6 35.m11 36.m5 37.p7
I was greatly relieved to see |35.n8. A more crucial line was
|35.g8 36.i5
And I think I might still have a win, but I'm not completely certain.
