[22:31] AgentShabu[15k]: Thanks.

[22:31] AgentShabu[15k]: Go easy on me

[22:31] marblevolcano[7k]: Maybe....

[22:31] AgentShabu[15k]: Why didn't I get handicap stones?

Move 5

[22:31] marblevolcano[7k]: That's the way the tournament is set up

Move 6

[22:32] AgentShabu[15k]: Don't real tournaments have handicaps?

[22:32] marblevolcano[7k]: I don't know

Move 9

[22:32] AgentShabu[16k]: what is the 3 x 30s?

Move 10

[22:32] marblevolcano[7k]: Once the main time runs out, you get three 30-second periods

Move 14

[22:33] AgentShabu[16k]: well I'm going to lose very quickly then

Move 18

[22:34] marblevolcano[7k]: You're playing okay so far

Move 20

[22:34] AgentShabu[16k]: ha ha... I think the first 5-10 moves are very important on a 9x9

[22:34] marblevolcano[7k]: They are

Move 29

[22:35] AgentShabu[16k]: And I would suppose there's a big difference between 25k and 13k

Move 31

[22:36] marblevolcano[7k]: Probably about the same as between a 13k and a dan tbh

Move 32

[22:36] AgentShabu[16k]: sounds right

Move 51

[22:38] marblevolcano[7k]: There's a really important thing you need to do right now

Move 52

[22:39] AgentShabu[16k]: wanna tell me?

[22:44] AgentShabu[16k]: Variation: 1

[22:44] AgentShabu[16k]: What if I do that instead?

[22:44] AgentShabu[16k]: I think this is a common beginner situation
