[17:19] CarloTibaldi[1d]: since winning this game is not important, I think B plays for fun :-)
Move 31
[17:24] q218689295[?]: Variation: 1
[17:24] siljan[?]: No, black is not playing for fun but for Euro 100 prize-money
[17:25] ronin3[1k]: there's too much choice for W's next move now >__>
[17:25] ronin3[1k]: everything looks important
[17:25] shinuito[1d]: Yeah be interesting to see where white plays
[17:26] shinuito[1d]: I wonder does g17 look interesting
[17:27] ronin3[1k]: probably big but not urgent
[17:27] shinuito[1d]: I was wondering does it threaten a cut
[17:27] TomiP[2d]: hmm... I would probably just play F3

[17:33] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: are there locally any other moves than c11?

[17:34] MortalGreed[2k]: too big and no reason
[17:35] 1weigo[4k]: Who is nidza?
[17:35] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: nikola mitic, former insei
[17:35] 1weigo[4k]: ty
[17:35] dlpigozzi[4k]: I think B is worried about the connection with D9
[17:35] Licker[3k]: i will say c4 or e4
[17:36] MortalGreed[2k]: is it bigger than white c11 ?
[17:36] dlpigozzi[4k]: is gonna be c11
[17:36] MortalGreed[2k]: don't see any other moves either
[17:37] dlpigozzi[4k]: may be is thinking e10
[17:37] dlpigozzi[4k]: but looks crazy
[17:37] pupukani[4d]: b12
[17:38] Zaphodian[?]: You can find all information about this tournament on this page https://eurogofed.org/grandprix/egpf2020.html
Move 37
[17:38] dlpigozzi[4k]: wow
[17:39] Licker[3k]: nice one. too small for saving 3 stone
[17:39] MortalGreed[2k]: it's not 3 stones
[17:39] MortalGreed[2k]: it's automatically alive group
[17:39] MortalGreed[2k]: with almost 0 sente moves
[17:40] Chinitsu[3d]: yeah it looks tremendously big to me...
[17:41] dlpigozzi[4k]: Variation: alive?
[17:41] MortalGreed[2k]: white will go c11 not c10
Move 38
[17:42] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: would have been easier
[17:42] MortalGreed[2k]: i like white position
Move 45
[17:43] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: oh wow, i didnt see this trade happening
[17:43] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: i thought it would be bad for b xd
[17:43] Zaphodian[?]: E10 and E8 combi is inefficient.
[17:44] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: The future
Move 46
[17:44] MortalGreed[2k]: 2 worthless stones for c12-c14 is such gift for w
Move 48
[17:45] Zaphodian[?]: W is slightly better, not much.
[17:45] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: w got 3 stones in sente and b got 2 stones in gote, cant be bad for white ^^
[17:45] MortalGreed[2k]: and even in sente
[17:45] MortalGreed[2k]: ye
[17:45] Zaphodian[?]: Give me a slightly better game in sente any time.
Move 51
[17:48] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: make a base first, think later
Move 53
[17:48] Zaphodian[?]: E2 was the vital point
Move 54
[17:49] MortalGreed[2k]: every time Ilya attacks, he gains profit
[17:49] MatiasPankoke[?]: how about: cut two weak groups first, think later :)
[17:49] MortalGreed[2k]: what a player
[17:50] Zaphodian[?]: OK, at least don't think...
[17:50] Zaphodian[?]: what about TAKING a base now with B4?
[17:51] Shinkenjoe[1k]: looks to me like black needs the inefficient g8
[17:51] Shinkenjoe[1k]: f8
Move 55
[17:53] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: b making some points finally ^^
Move 58
[17:54] bobsof[2d]: White is rather surgical.
Move 68
[17:59] Shinkenjoe[1k]: i knew n3 looks shapy ... but l4 still seperates and you have to consider the fight afterwards, or am i wrong?
[17:59] Zaphodian[?]: Brute force right now!
[17:59] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: Brutus
[18:00] MatiasPankoke[?]: Thats the AI move :) And with that black is at 75 percent actually
[18:00] MortalGreed[2k]: also looking m3
[18:01] Welvang[1p]: hi
[18:01] MatiasPankoke[?]: I had to check AI since I didn't agree with the Chat that white is winning, sorry ^^
[18:01] Shinkenjoe[1k]: hiho
[18:01] Zaphodian[?]: That's nice to know. Maybe first J9 and G9
[18:01] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: Brutus Revised
[18:01] Welvang[1p]: hope to watch a game as great as yesterday but ilya won't let that happen
[18:01] MatiasPankoke[?]: It's hard to look at a game objectively when Ilya is playing, I guess...
[18:01] MortalGreed[2k]: that's still rude, writing percents while game is on
[18:02] Free Tibet[1k]: n4
[18:02] Zaphodian[?]: Yesterday's game was outstanding, especially from an entertainment perspective
[18:02] bobsof[2d]: Anthology
[18:03] MatiasPankoke[?]: If Nikola gets a big lead now it might be as entertaining
[18:03] Lennonson[5k]: Who played yesterday?
[18:03] Zaphodian[?]: If people are interested in yesterday's game _ game 30208121
[18:03] Lennonson[5k]: Thank you.
[18:03] Chinitsu[3d]: Thanks Zaphodian

[18:04] Zaphodian[?]: Sure, guys, knock yourselves out.
Move 69
[18:05] Fisherman_M[6k]: the schedule doesn't say much about time the games from now till the end of Jan
[18:05] Fisherman_M[6k]: will appreciate if someone share the link with the details
[18:05] Zaphodian[?]: Those are the details
[18:05] Fisherman_M[6k]: otherwise I can catch the game only by chance
[18:06] Fisherman_M[6k]: any clue about timing for Quarterfinals 22-24 of Jan?
[18:06] Zaphodian[?]: No, once they get to the next round, the players decide the exact day and time
[18:06] Fisherman_M[6k]: I see
[18:07] Fisherman_M[6k]: will it be posted on eurogofed. org then?
[18:07] Zaphodian[?]: Yes
[18:07] Fisherman_M[6k]: excellent!
[18:07] Zaphodian[?]: As soon as they know, each time
[18:07] Fisherman_M[6k]: thank you!!
[18:07] Fisherman_M[6k]: feel way better now)
[18:08] kusrabs[5k]: Weell... Looks like black much much better
[18:08] Zaphodian[?]: OK, well, you are not gonna miss out.
[18:08] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: Honte (the proper move)
[18:09] Fisherman_M[6k]: I tink time to explore right side of the board
[18:09] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: Honte No. 2
Move 70
[18:10] Zaphodian[?]: After K11, a Black peep at G10 can become nasty
[18:10] Zaphodian[?]: N5 makes a huge number of points
[18:10] MortalGreed[2k]: is white corner alive ? why they both ignore g9 ?
[18:11] kusrabs[5k]: if Iliya looses, the tiebreak in A-group turns to be the hell.
[18:11] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: Consistency
Move 71
[18:11] LVL79[4k]: Тайбрейков не будет - Илья уже на первом месте в группе при любом раскладе
[18:12] Welvang[1p]: thats next level genius nikola
[18:12] Zaphodian[?]: L5 looks like a fat overplay after N5
[18:12] Welvang[1p]: you got inspired from yesterday
[18:12] CarloTibaldi[1d]: Ilya is 1st already and Nikola is already 4th
[18:12] Zaphodian[?]: Yes, I did. Maybe consistency is not a valid argument anymore
[18:13] Welvang[1p]: i was actually talking to nikola
[18:13] Welvang[1p]: it's a one way conversation
[18:13] Zaphodian[?]: Ahhh, ok.
[18:13] xxchemotoxx[?]: dont give up Tanguy
[18:14] xxchemotoxx[?]: im checking the game but dunno
[18:14] xxchemotoxx[?]: i feel empty
[18:14] xxchemotoxx[?]: i feel something is missing after yesterday
[18:14] Welvang[1p]: because fredda is not here yet
[18:14] xxchemotoxx[?]: also
[18:14] xxchemotoxx[?]: but Ben is here
[18:14] Zaphodian[?]: Maybe there is someone out there in the Universe who actually listens to you (oops, I did)...
[18:14] xxchemotoxx[?]: literally next to me :D
[18:14] Welvang[1p]: but i'm afraid for fredda
[18:14] Welvang[1p]: he may not come back
[18:15] Welvang[1p]: he said this a few hours ago :
[18:16] Welvang[1p]: Fredrik, 12:58 I’m depressed Fredrik :Can’t experience it again Schayan13:00 What happened? SchayanWife cheated you? 😆 Fredrik :No, The Oskar Ben0 game
[18:16] Welvang[1p]: we all feel like you juli
[18:16] xxchemotoxx[?]: yeah...
Move 75
[18:17] Welvang[1p]: ilya just spent 5min reading l4 and nikola played m6
[18:17] Welvang[1p]: thats genius
[18:18] Zaphodian[?]: IC, wow, Fredda gto shell-shocked by reality
[18:18] Welvang[1p]: (also it's pretty bad)
Move 77
[18:18] Fisherman_M[6k]: seems B12 can safe blacks
Move 78
[18:18] Zaphodian[?]: OMG, W just lives and that's that
Move 89
[18:19] Zaphodian[?]: L5 and so were a huge loss...
[18:20] Welvang[1p]: especially m6 :(
[18:20] Zaphodian[?]: Yes.
[18:20] damu[?]: Game finished
Move 90
[18:20] Welvang[1p]: not if you're there damu
Move 91
[18:21] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: wait is it sudenly so bad for b?
Move 93
[18:21] Zaphodian[?]: No, B is a little behind
[18:21] Welvang[1p]: there is a fragment of ben-oscar games in all of us
[18:21] Welvang[1p]: together we can't make it revive
[18:21] damu[?]: Its like 1933 for b
[18:21] Welvang[1p]: from which side
[18:21] Zaphodian[?]: R4 Q5 P4 was better at P4 immediately
[18:22] kusrabs[5k]: But, CarloTibaldi and LVL79: ... in case of 2 players with an equal number of wins after three rounds the result of the mutual game decides. I though the number #1 is just for the second pairing, losers with losers.
Move 94
[18:22] DioBrandof923b297a6cf40dc[3d]: groSeigen ? Really ? xD
Move 96
[18:22] damu[?]: Mutual destruction coming
Move 101
[18:22] MortalGreed[2k]: such a proud corner for b
[18:22] Welvang[1p]: nikola plays fast = nikola is mad at the game
Move 104
[18:23] DioBrandof923b297a6cf40dc[3d]: and then the game became a blitz
[18:23] Welvang[1p]: but there is still hope
Move 105
[18:23] damu[?]: He is already drunk probably
[18:23] damu[?]: Couldnt resist temptation After fuseki
[18:23] CarloTibaldi[1d]: @kusrabs, Ilya has already won 2 games, no 2 other players can get to 2 wins (just 1 and not Nikola)
[18:24] MortalGreed[2k]: for the last 50 moves did b gain any real territory ?
Move 106
[18:24] Welvang[1p]: b5 is actually big yose loss for white, also he'll get g11 cut, and some potential
[18:24] Welvang[1p]: it's not all dark
Move 107
[18:24] Welvang[1p]: b points are hidden for now
[18:25] ben0[4d]: Hello darkness my old friend
[18:25] Welvang[1p]: the legend is here
[18:25] damu[?]: Zerooo
[18:25] gagovedo[?]: everybody, stand please
[18:26] Welvang[1p]: :)
[18:26] ben0[4d]: Show some respect indeed

[18:27] gagovedo[?]: ok, you can seat now
Move 110
[18:27] LVL79[4k]: ^)
Move 111
[18:28] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: is learning new kibitz-skill here
[18:28] ben0[4d]: Well, looking at this game, Nikola only chance of winning is if he made a video saying he will destroy Ilya
[18:28] Welvang[1p]: everytime i read the word "ashes" its pronounced like if it was a deodorant advertising
[18:28] Welvang[1p]: in my head
[18:28] xxchemotoxx[?]: maybe a gap in the market field
[18:29] mark5000[8d]: Please keep the kibitz respectful. Thank you.
[18:29] ben0[4d]: No.
[18:29] ben0[4d]: Not after what happened yesterday
[18:30] Welvang[1p]: Variation: is that worth it ?
[18:30] kusrabs[5k]: my fault, I see. Thank you, CarloTibaldi
Move 120
[18:32] LVL79[4k]: _*+/test/+*_
[18:32] Welvang[1p]: feels like the kibitz may end up soon anyway mark5000
Move 125
[18:33] tekken8[2d]: wait what
[18:33] damu[?]: Fuuck this game
Move 127
[18:34] Welvang[1p]: or not :)
[18:34] damu[?]: Couldnt capture or what
Move 129
[18:34] Welvang[1p]: he could but that's risking a huge moyo
[18:34] damu[?]: Hmm
[18:35] tekken8[2d]: of course white destroys the center
Move 132
[18:35] Welvang[1p]: Variation: 3
[18:35] damu[?]: Insta hane aha
Move 134
[18:36] Free Tibet[1k]: bravo
[18:36] LVL79[4k]: damu, what happens?
[18:36] Welvang[1p]: there is hope for a dragon kill
[18:37] Welvang[1p]: o10 feels nice
[18:37] gocaman[3k]: go nizda!
[18:37] damu[?]: If w gets 10 points on the top he has 55 without komi
[18:38] damu[?]: Variation: I see barely 40 for b
[18:38] Palko[2p]: I want to say it's hopeless for black
Move 135
Move 139
[18:39] Welvang[1p]: i see 120 points with dragon dying
[18:39] damu[?]: So final fight
[18:39] damu[?]: Inshallah nikola will kill it
[18:39] kusrabs[5k]: o10 kills the hope
[18:39] tekken8[2d]: yeah right
Move 145
[18:43] ronin3[1k]: i missed the big match :(
Move 149
[18:44] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: so is the dragon now alive?
[18:44] Welvang[1p]: not yet, there is a chance if white has to live in a painful way and b kills top
[18:45] weiwuwei[3d]: dragon has one sure eye
[18:47] Welvang[1p]: tbh ilya needs to be extra careful
Move 150
[18:49] death_taxes[1k]: just tuned in, seems like a low point game
Move 151
[18:50] death_taxes[1k]: b is a bit behind, right?
[18:50] Zaphodian[?]: Yes, but B still has some tricks
[18:50] Welvang[1p]: he's behind on territory, game might be decided in the next 10-15moves
[18:50] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: trick example
Move 152
[18:51] death_taxes[1k]: yes, w group in middle seems weak
[18:51] Welvang[1p]: l15 ?
[18:51] Zaphodian[?]: Yup, keep splitting
[18:53] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: If, if, then
[18:57] kusrabs[5k]: Variation: варкрафт
[18:58] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: big plans if B gets sente
[18:58] Russian[5d]: Variation: cach mouse!
[18:58] brubrubrubru[16k]: ahahahha
Move 157
[18:59] Welvang[1p]: hmm
[19:00] Zaphodian[?]: indeed, hmm
[19:00] DioBrandof923b297a6cf40dc[3d]: killng intention
Move 159
[19:01] Zaphodian[?]: ???
Move 160
[19:01] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: o.o
[19:01] pynxy[6d]: Never understimate the power of someone playing old japanese style
[19:01] Zaphodian[?]: I understand Q18 instead of N15
[19:01] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: somebody surely misjudged this?
[19:02] -Crr-Ake-[11k]: W gave up???
[19:02] Welvang[1p]: that move is working really well
[19:02] Zaphodian[?]: yes
[19:02] NinjaKitty[8k]: Variation: shuriken ...
Move 161
[19:02] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: looks like b gave up on attacking the center xd
Move 162
[19:02] Zaphodian[?]: J4 K4 L7
Move 163
[19:03] Zaphodian[?]: G17 looks slightly risky
Move 165
[19:04] Zaphodian[?]: but $*!%, he plays it
[19:04] pynxy[6d]: he is eu champ, he can play whatever he wans
[19:05] LVL79[4k]: very interesting game
[19:05] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: no big deal
[19:05] Welvang[1p]: true, if nikola plays good, he will play better
[19:05] Welvang[1p]: if nikola plays random, he'll play randomer
[19:06] Zaphodian[?]: We can play whatever we want. The only difference is that we lose more often.
[19:06] Welvang[1p]: that's an ability he has
[19:06] Zaphodian[?]: Yup, today, Random is his middle name.
Move 166
[19:07] Zaphodian[?]: But yesterday, Oscar played randomest.
[19:07] JanGret[11k]: so what does white want to do in the top?
Move 168
[19:07] Zaphodian[?]: staying alive, ah, ah, ah, ah, staying alive
Move 169
[19:08] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: even with the worst intentions
[19:08] pynxy[6d]: Ilya does not simply walk into death
Move 175
[19:09] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: more worst intentions
[19:09] tymak[2d]: what about b?....shouldnt healso focus on staying alive?
[19:09] Zaphodian[?]: Can't afford to
[19:10] Zaphodian[?]: It's too expensive to stay alive
Move 178
[19:12] pynxy[6d]: w has the initiative to take big points in the endgame and it should be enough for him
Move 179
[19:13] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: In our wildest dreams
[19:14] tekken8[2d]: not q16?
Move 180
[19:14] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: w to kill the rest of the avalanche?
Move 181
[19:16] Zaphodian[?]: K13 looks a mistake
[19:16] 1weigo[4k]: xhy?
[19:16] 1weigo[4k]: why?*
[19:16] riiia[3k]: k13 seems to invite a capturing race
[19:16] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: impossible made possible
[19:17] tekken8[2d]: blacks dead
[19:17] tekken8[2d]: probably
[19:17] NikAmv[23k]: hello guys
[19:17] NikAmv[23k]: omg it's pro
Move 182
[19:18] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: not gonna happen either
[19:19] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: B saves his behind
[19:19] NikAmv[23k]: maybe k18
[19:20] Zaphodian[?]: Variation: hard to kill
[19:20] ronin3[1k]: eww that white dumpling
[19:21] pynxy[6d]: this is what happenes when you play out of date josekies
Move 183
[19:22] Zaphodian[?]: Never-ending hope
[19:22] JanGret[11k]: that is just black alive and white gaining a little territory. And white stronger in the middle. I doubt black wants that
[19:22] NikAmv[23k]: thank
Move 184
[19:22] Zaphodian[?]: Black just wants to have fun now
Move 185
[19:22] Ca11e[?]: Ouf, nice trap from black
[19:23] JanGret[11k]: does this "tetris block" shape at the top has a name? Every time I put it in my games I lose ^^
[19:23] ronin3[1k]: haha ^^
[19:23] tekken8[2d]: B2 bombers

[19:25] tekken8[2d]: easy one for me i guess

[19:26] Fisherman_M[6k]: gg, ty!
[19:27] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: this is what happens when you play avalanche joseki ^^
[19:27] 💖 KoBa 💖[1k]: i fully blame everything that happened on that one joseki choice
[19:28] JanGret[11k]: Looking forward to Stanislaw vs Anton tomorrow, decides who advances in group a
[19:28] ronin3[1k]: i'm happy that W only played the big, non urgent move at move 160 or so
[19:29] Ca11e[?]: Imagine if this game was as hard as chess : )
[19:29] Ca11e[?]: joke*
[19:29] Ca11e[?]: calm
