Rules: Japanese
Black wins by 6.5 points
Move 3
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: European Online Women's Go Championship 2020
Move 5
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: the last quater-final match! Elvina Kalsberg (Russia) -- Isabel Donle (Germany)
S_Alexander[2d]: boom let's watch
Move 11
Shinkenjoe[1d]: i've only seen tenuki after f16 lately
Move 16
rowlunch[5k]: Doesn't o17 make it easier for whites right group?
Shinkenjoe[1d]: whites right group is quite strong, sure black can play s11 and later attack the group, but white could tenuki
Move 17
rowlunch[5k]: K thanks :)
Move 20
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: yeah, o17 makes r11 really nice move for white, and it makes whites top lot smaller
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: Variation: w playing o17 would have been big too
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: *really nice move for black, i mean
Move 23
rowlunch[5k]: So it was more about taking what white wanted?
Move 25
Shinkenjoe[1d]: Variation: i wonder if white had a special plan for this
rowlunch[5k]: And b got extension now
Move 26
Shinkenjoe[1d]: Variation: for example
Move 28
Ajibaba[?]: i suspect the 3-3 was the leela move as in your variation and even more so before d10
Move 29
rowlunch[5k]: What I don't get is why b wants to invade 3-3 when they have massive corner themselves which is open to invasion
Ajibaba[?]: b wants to invade the 3-3 corner before she cuts at c9 because if she did it would fix the corner too
rowlunch[5k]: Aaah I see it ^^
Ajibaba[?]: i dont think it is necessarily the correct approach
Move 32
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: Variation: yeah, 3-3 would be pretty hard after the c9 cut
joachim[3d]: Variation: Normal?
Move 34
joachim[3d]: B5 surprised me a bit
Move 35
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: Variation: what happens here?
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: looks messy af >___>
joachim[3d]: B4
rowlunch[5k]: C8 wouldn't work as response to peep?
Ajibaba[?]: Variation: 18
Ajibaba[?]: this is rather normal i think
Ajibaba[?]: this is slightly worse for b than just cutting c9 without invading the corner first i think
Move 36
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: hmm at least w had to play in the corner again to make sure it stays dead, and c7 looks kinda helpful move for b
Move 37
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: oh its not dead yet?
Ardargoz[2k]: Maybe for more I that's later,
Ardargoz[2k]: Ko*
Ardargoz[2k]: Threats*
Ajibaba[?]: it is, but there is aji, beyond me to say when to do certain exchanges to activate it later
Move 41
Ajibaba[?]: b2 gave potential h2 connection with go for free now
Ajibaba[?]: with ko
Move 42
Shinkenjoe[1d]: g6 looks slow
Shinkenjoe[1d]: em f6 sry
Ardargoz[2k]: Threatens to pull Sons
Ardargoz[2k]: Omg trying to use this with phone is bad
Shinkenjoe[1d]: it kinda pushes black into playing an extension, which she wants to do anyways
Ardargoz[2k]: F6 threatens to pull the stone out it attack the bottom
Move 48
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: k16 now?
Move 53
Shinkenjoe[1d]: another standard move would have been m18 instead of k16
Ajibaba[?]: m18 would have been too early
Move 54
Shinkenjoe[1d]: hmm i thought m15 in place inhibits m18, but it still works
Move 57
pinel.loic[?]: On WG16, I(ve tried WH17, think better for white
pinel.loic[?]: but I'm probably around 18k don't think if it's good
Ajibaba[?]: Variation: 19
Ajibaba[?]: kind of complicated but i think this variation is the reason why in this case i dont think h17 is good
pinel.loic[?]: thanks
tinsanun[?]: rtghj,./hi
Shinkenjoe[1d]: white thinking a lot, maybe thinking bout sacrificing the m17 group
pinel.loic[?]: P15?
Shinkenjoe[1d]: maybe, i tried to read o16, but ended in desaster
Move 58
hypergeometric[4k]: Koba : when is the next game ?
pinel.loic[?]: N17 i(ve played when tried bO17
derler[11k]: according to eurogofed it's the day after tomorrow. let's enjoy this game first.
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: the semi-final games havent been scheduled yet, but those should be on 15.-17th
Move 59
Ajibaba[?]: does w play to play m18 if b cut?
pinel.loic[?]: Oh, it's a tournament ?
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: championship tournament ^^
pinel.loic[?]: owhowhowh
pinel.loic[?]: I'm new on this game, it's cool to see a tournament :)
yunonka[1k]: welcome, Loic:)
Shinkenjoe[1d]: definitely
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: yeah
Move 60
Shinkenjoe[1d]: enter semeai
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: its nice to have these kinda serious games on ogs ^^
Move 61
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: usually ewgc has been on some live location, and the only way to see the games has been if you're there standing next to the board
Shinkenjoe[1d]: strike through the "kinda"
Mbrez[?]: the top games were always scribed on KGS except in 2018
Move 62
NeonLights[3d]: Maybe when it was held on the Isle of Mann it wasn't broadcast
Shinkenjoe[1d]: they don't have internet?
joachim[3d]: Not enough scribes maybe.
pinel.loic[?]: And, europen go federation ( EGF ? ) i've some entries ? For a new french player ?
pinel.loic[?]: Or is it only for some ranked players ?
NeonLights[3d]: this year it is restricted to just 16
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: pine, you will get an egf rank if you attend to some egf ranked tournament ^^
NeonLights[3d]: normally any woman can enter if they are a member of an EGF member federation
hypergeometric[4k]: who is winning ?
hypergeometric[4k]: It seems to me that K17 is dead
Mbrez[?]: you should start with a French go license :D it's the good moment to get one before the majoration
NeonLights[3d]: it is illegal to play go in France without a license
hypergeometric[4k]: What is a go licence good for ?
hypergeometric[4k]: wow really
dlpigozzi[5k]: is k17 group or W's big group
NeonLights[3d]: yes, look what happened to André Moussa
Move 63
dlpigozzi[5k]: what happened?
NeonLights[3d]: i don't know
Ajibaba[?]: doesnt look easy to kill to me
Ajibaba[?]: Variation: 20
pinel.loic[?]: I'll try to search for FFG ( fédération française de go )
pinel.loic[?]: thx for the informations, let's see this game :)
dacat1[7d]: hmm c9 looked a bit small: saving the corner might have been preferrable
dacat1[7d]: and this sacrifice looks a bit optimistic on black's part, let's see if it works out ^^
Move 64
Shinkenjoe[1d]: you refer to sacrifice of O17?
Move 67
Coreon[3d]: did b just died? E18 doesn't look sente
Coreon[3d]: *die
Phenol[4d]: H18 need
Move 68
Phenol[4d]: ))
Shinkenjoe[1d]: so rather f18 than f17 ?
dacat1[7d]: if b can't resist n13 its kinda over...
Coreon[3d]: can't b make a Ko out of L17, M18?
dacat1[7d]: also black is dying on top ^^
Coreon[3d]: ah, no forget about that
Coreon[3d]: b ist just dead
Move 69
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: :<
Ajibaba[?]: Variation: 21
Move 70
pinel.loic[?]: It's the same way we saw earlier
pinel.loic[?]: with wH17
Move 72
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: isnt b alive now with g18?
Coreon[3d]: yea, I missed it again :D
Move 78
dacat1[7d]: so black is kind of surviving and got to play n13 after all
dacat1[7d]: nice
dacat1[7d]: Variation: black would have gotten crushed
Move 80
derler[11k]: I am not sure about black surviving yet. but at least black got n13 yeah.
Ajibaba[?]: Variation: 22
Ajibaba[?]: its something
Move 84
dacat1[7d]: Variation: gg for b
dacat1[7d]: black giving those two and living in gote would probably not be playable ^^
Ajibaba[?]: no you tenuki it i suppose
dacat1[7d]: mm, what would be the sequence for that?
Move 92
Ajibaba[?]: probably hard to find one, which i wouldnt only mention in shame
Move 93
Shinkenjoe[1d]: time to count
dacat1[7d]: b really kind of survived
NeonLights[3d]: is there a danger of black o16 there
dacat1[7d]: sort of ok on points and not bad on strength either, n13 ponnuki and all
Move 96
Coreon[3d]: hmm white ist not easily alive in the left bottom corner either. could hurt in an upcoming fight if b manages to cut white off there
Move 97
Shinkenjoe[1d]: i got white 54,5 (with komi) and black and black 56 with my +- 10 points kyu count
Move 99
Shinkenjoe[1d]: but white just gained points in reference to my count
Move 100
Coreon[3d]: why would be play K4 instead of J4?
Move 101
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: g5 o.O
Move 102
Chinitsu[3d]: G5 looks like the kind of move I play when I'm panicking...
Move 104
Chinitsu[3d]: but it my case it usually end up when my opponent laughing at my face T_T
Chinitsu[3d]: *end up with
Move 107
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: b just gives up f3 stones now >__>
Move 109
derler[11k]: what. I expected g6 or something. to reconstitute towards the middle. not j2.
Chinitsu[3d]: K5
Chinitsu[3d]: wait wait no lol
Chinitsu[3d]: I'm an idiot
Move 111
dacat1[7d]: i was wondering if b could plonk a stone down at r7 to annoy w
dacat1[7d]: i would have tried :D
Chinitsu[3d]: I would too, b is very strong nearby
Move 112
Chinitsu[3d]: But maybe white can kill b R7 inside? This is common shape so probably people already have a joseki for it
dacat1[7d]: b would at least get free s5 endgame
dacat1[7d]: i dont care if it dies, I want s5 and s19 in sente :D
dacat1[7d]: *s10
Groin[2d]: Just joined. Are we in the yose already?
Move 114
Chinitsu[3d]: Yes, since move 1
Chinitsu[3d]: Fuseki is just big yose move for AI
Shinkenjoe[1d]: naa there was a hard fight top
Coreon[3d]: looks like b could make some points in the centre thoigh
Move 115
Shinkenjoe[1d]: black has a small lead even without center, according to my count, so white gotta do sth
Move 118
Coreon[3d]: But I thought b could play p6 instead of n6, I didnt see anything tricky for b
dacat1[7d]: Variation: can they stop playing in the center and take these points...
Coreon[3d]: anyway, if b is ahead there's no need to make the game more complicated
Chinitsu[3d]: Um I count white leading by komi actually...
Move 119
Chinitsu[3d]: Q4 because spirit
Move 120
Chinitsu[3d]: yay spirit
Move 121
Groin[2d]: Gote spirit?
Move 123
Chinitsu[3d]: better than gote spiritless
Move 126
Chinitsu[3d]: oooh
Chinitsu[3d]: the spirit is strong within this one
Move 127
Chinitsu[3d]: I don't see anything though >_>
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: why this way
GERLyde[4d]: Variation: Step-KO
derler[11k]: tempting white to follow up on o2 maybe?
dacat1[7d]: w is slightly ahead I think...
Move 128
Groin[2d]: A spirit full comment, thx GERLyde
dacat1[7d]: that step ko is usually a trap
dacat1[7d]: more trouble for w than its worth ^^
Move 129
GERLyde[4d]: yeah I think so too
dacat1[7d]: usually its more like w r5 is sente endgame xD
Chinitsu[3d]: Why choose step-ko to live when you can kill O2 to live
Move 130
Groin[2d]: To level down aji
Move 131
dacat1[7d]: p6 is huge
Groin[2d]: But ok black choice looks alright here
Shinkenjoe[1d]: the hard thing about counting is the endgame privileges
dacat1[7d]: much bigger than s12...
dacat1[7d]: i guess b might be good here
GERLyde[4d]: The winner of this game plays Manja?
dacat1[7d]: think so
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: yup
GERLyde[4d]: exciting :)
Move 133
martin97[4d]: Q14 is some points
dacat1[7d]: b can safely play d19 in sente...
Move 134
dacat1[7d]: Variation: theres nothing on the top, b alive
dacat1[7d]: so e19 is actually super urgent
Move 135
ThomSailor[11k]: margin of white is shrinking. Only 10 moku left
Chinitsu[3d]: :o you mean before white was winning by a lot more than 10moku?
Move 136
ThomSailor[11k]: yep around 20
ThomSailor[11k]: now its 14 again ...
dacat1[7d]: aha...
pinel.loic[?]: W? I thinked i losed the game
Move 141
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: i hope w doesnt lose on time >____>
Coreon[3d]: I only see w like 3-4 points ahead
Move 145
Coreon[3d]: but probably my endgame isnt on point
derler[11k]: oh indeed. the clock is pretty harsh on white now.
Move 150
Coreon[3d]: b15 should be kinda sente for b, since w isnt alive otherwise?
Move 156
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: d19 before b16?
Move 157
Shinkenjoe[1d]: was huge
Move 162
Tuks[3d]: black is ahead isn't she?
Shinkenjoe[1d]: i think so too, all others said white some moves before
Shinkenjoe[1d]: and some kata said like 10 to 15 points for white
CarloTibaldi[1d]: I think W is ahead
Move 163
Chinitsu[3d]: I count b ahead now too
Move 164
martin97[4d]: B is clearly winning, no?
Move 166
Shinkenjoe[1d]: f14 surprised me
CarloTibaldi[1d]: at least she think so :-)
Ajibaba[?]: e10 is problematic
martin97[4d]: R12 looks tempting
godevil[4k]: Q12
Move 167
derler[11k]: yeah r12 was clearly better
Move 172
Chinitsu[3d]: L17
Move 178
Chinitsu[3d]: hmmm L17 looks extremely tempting to me
Move 179
claus67[4d]: maybe black f10 wasnt good. i preferred e13
Chinitsu[3d]: ... at least a lot bigger than F18....
Move 183
Shinkenjoe[1d]: why not a16
Move 184
Shinkenjoe[1d]: or a17
Move 191
Chinitsu[3d]: O16 before M16 should be better?
Move 198
pinel.loic[?]: White win ? Black i'd no chance to win some point around E13 on the game ?
Move 199
pinel.loic[?]: When he played around B8, it was not bigger tu take the colomn E around E13 ?
Shinkenjoe[1d]: are you sure youre coordinates are right?
Move 200
pinel.loic[?]: Yes, B9 turn 139,
Chinitsu[3d]: not sure what you mean I see black winning
pinel.loic[?]: Oh ok
Move 201
pinel.loic[?]: If black win it's ok XD
kusrabs[5k]: unfortunately Isabel looks like a winner...
Move 202
N O V E M B E R[4d]: Unfortunately you have only 12k
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: whats unfortunate about that? xD
kusrabs[5k]: We secretly dreamed about Russian final
Move 203
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: hahah
derler[11k]: yeah. we will have germany vs russia in the final then. :-) that's fortunate tzo know for both countries. ;-)
kusrabs[5k]: <error>, it makes your manners better?
Chinitsu[3d]: Isabel02's account is only 16k N O V E M B E R :p
Move 206
Chinitsu[3d]: Germany is very strong. I remember in 2012 I came to Hamburg to work for a yeah and played with some people
Chinitsu[3d]: zero win...
Chinitsu[3d]: two of the guys were even playing chess when I arrived...
N O V E M B E R[4d]: She has few games)
timuzhti[5d]: It says 21.2k for me
Move 207
Shinkenjoe[1d]: such a sandbagger
Move 208
Shinkenjoe[1d]: ^^
Move 211
Chinitsu[3d]: oh
Chinitsu[3d]: looks like a cut
Chinitsu[3d]: ah no cut sorry
Move 218
Chinitsu[3d]: great they are playing 1 point gote moves now...
derler[11k]: :-D
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: w feeling the time pressure ;___;
Move 221
Chinitsu[3d]: Frischer is very timesuji-friendly
N O V E M B E R[4d]: W mistake
Move 225
Chinitsu[3d]: L10 was mistake imo, but black is winning anyway, mistake around this point is not enough to change result
Move 234
N O V E M B E R[4d]: White could play t3
Move 237
kusrabs[5k]: <error>, are you sure? It's not empty.
derler[11k]: probably t13. as we just saw that move.
Move 238
N O V E M B E R[4d]: No, t3 earlier
Move 252
Daniug[3d]: b ahea by kind of 10?
Move 260
derler[11k]: blacks last moves kinda lost me.
Chinitsu[3d]: mmm?
Move 271
Chinitsu[3d]: there was nothing at S8 it seems
Ajibaba[?]: there was
Move 274
kernel_m0d3[8k]: is white a9 gonna take 1 point off black?
Move 275
💖 KoBa 💖[1d]: gg! awesome game isabel!
timuzhti[5d]: No. Black doesn't have to connect.
Chinitsu[3d]: Ah yeah S8 was viable
isibboi[5k]: gg
kusrabs[5k]: Хорошая игра.
Isabel02[?]: thank you
Ajibaba[?]: gg
Chinitsu[3d]: gg
