W21: Oh this is so mean.

ChessWhiz: Ack! I resign.

Moves 11-20

B18: I have to hold this together somehow...

W17: I take the other one again.

B16: I'm getting the same feeling. I think a good handicap may even be 7 or 8...

W15: I'll go on attack. I start getting the feeling that 5 stones may not be enough to make up for the Choice. What do you think?

B14: Take your pick. Do you want me to be overconcentrated or attackable? (Alternative was at a)

W13: Ok, ok...

B12: Yeah, yeah, stop bragging and take those three stones.

W11: "...how we can mess this up" says the man who cannot make use of atari :-)

Moves 1-10

B10: Let's see how much we can mess this up.

W9: Well, otherwise 5 stones handicap wouldn't be quite fair...

B8: I can tell I'm not going to win all the fights.

W7: Sorry, I do take the other one :-)

B6: Hey, can I play on both x's this time? ;-)

B4: So far, so good.

W3: Dito!

B2: Good luck!
