Path: CommentedGames · Prev: AlterPedroStrangeGame · Next: Virtueless PageType: OngoingGame
Agt: I suggest H2 with 0.5 komi (Japanese rules), since IGS ratings are at least as strong as KGS/NNGS ones, in my humble opinion. ChessWhiz: Sounds fine. Good luck!
W59: I'll fight the ko. W57: Let's stir up some trouble. W55: This ought to hold things together. W53: I feel that this is forced. B52: That's not very nice... W51: Forcing move, first...
W47: Now I push. B46: Let's try this. W45: Trying to keep from being cut. B44: Trying to cut. W43: This could turn out to be a problem... B42: I don't want to defend too passively. W41: I have to reduce your territory while I still can.
W39: Now I'll respond. B38: What else? W37: I don't think it's time to tenuki yet! I'll strengthen my wall and attack at the same time. B36: Let's play somewhere else, then. W35: Cut me if you dare. B34: Hesitantly. W33: How will you respond to this? B32: Let's try this (I hope this isn't too lame). W31: Let's confuse things a bit.
B30: What about this? W29: Defending with an attachment. B28: Attacking from the other side. W27: Boshi. B26: Time to attack this weak group, I guess. W25: Taking a big point. W23: Expanding my eyespace. B22: What else? W21: You attach, I extend. It's that simple.
B20: Protecting against the cut, and hopefully building some influence as well... Agt: Interesting. I wonder if I should try to kill these two stones (if it is possible) or not... ChessWhiz: I don't think it's possible right now. The best try may be at c. (Not that I'm giving you any hints... ;-) W19: Making a (weak) base. B18: So am I. W17: Taking a big chunk of territory.
B16: Following the joseki. W15: Before you cut at b, take a look at the cathedral. :-) W13: Both B12 and a seem like reasonable moves to me. With my move, I'm following the proverb, Respond To Attachment With Hane. B12: Maybe a was better, but with my level, I can't say. W11: I can see that I'm behind already, but since I started out behind, I might as well stay optimistic. :-) Let's see how you respond to this double kakari.
W9: Yes, I think that Black 8 was better than playing at b. B8: I considered playing b to be more solid but I don't think you can invade at a now anyway. W7: I considered playing a 3-3 point invasion at a, but this seems better. W3: Wow, 19x13 is weird. ;-) Path: CommentedGames · Prev: AlterPedroStrangeGame · Next: Virtueless This is a copy of the living page "Agt Against Chess Whiz" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
