[12:06] hitchigo[7k]: Hello

[12:06] hitchigo[7k]: I'm Sébastien BEIRNAERT, from France

[12:06] Argonijt[?]: Hi, I'm René de Groot, Utrecht, Netherlands

[12:06] hitchigo[7k]: Good game to you ;)

Move 1

[12:07] Argonijt[?]: Have fun and good luck

Move 2

[12:07] hitchigo[7k]: Sure

[12:07] hitchigo[7k]: You too

Move 4

[12:07] UnNeutral[1k]: ahhhh

Move 16

[12:09] UnNeutral[1k]: Variation: i reckon playing here. but it's just a personal favor :)

Move 30

[12:14] UnNeutral[1k]: Variation: playing here kinda makes W j16 bad. white 8 (which should play at c17), reinforces black's chinese fuseki

Move 44

[12:19] bugcat[4k]: hey hey

[12:19] UnNeutral[1k]: o/ bugcat

[12:19] bugcat[4k]: what is this TIP tournament I keep seeing?

[12:19] bugcat[4k]: is that the Corona Cup?

[12:19] UnNeutral[1k]: tourament in france

[12:19] bugcat[4k]: ahhhh

[12:19] bugcat[4k]: the Paris Open

[12:19] bugcat[4k]: the one with the paranoid anti-bot rules

[12:19] UnNeutral[1k]: now you're here, im more comfortable making comments :)

Move 45

[12:19] bugcat[4k]: c:

Move 46

[12:20] bugcat[4k]: Variation: I don't think A vs B really matters

[12:20] UnNeutral[1k]: only a personal favor :)

[12:20] bugcat[4k]: Variation: I would consider A, B, or C depending on how I felt that day

[12:20] bugcat[4k]: or tenuki

[12:20] bugcat[4k]: four very real options

[12:21] UnNeutral[1k]: not feeling well to tenuki

Move 51

[12:22] UnNeutral[1k]: Variation: this would well you why the upper left variation is bad. there're two var.s (same). in the lower right var. black 12 is a trick move. however, white responds with 13, which is slow. then, white answer 14 with 15,making the whole group over concentrated. black gets benifit on both sides

Move 52

[12:23] UnNeutral[1k]: (longest variation name i've written)

[12:23] bugcat[4k]: got called away for a second there

Move 53

[12:23] bugcat[4k]: back now

Move 55

[12:23] bugcat[4k]: oh, wow, they really played fast

Move 57

[12:23] bugcat[4k]: why would you blitz so hard with an hour on the clock?

Move 62

[12:24] bugcat[4k]: Variation: elaborating on that early position, I think that many moves are playable for Black

[12:25] ßàbå ķî[4d]: Turtle is playing his TIP game

[12:25] UnNeutral[1k]: Variation: i don't really think d9 is important. there's a obviously bigger point.

[12:25] UnNeutral[1k]: oh

Move 64

[12:25] UnNeutral[1k]: game 32569060 btw

Move 68

[12:26] bugcat[4k]: Variation: I'd like to play a little lower on the top side

[12:26] bugcat[4k]: but then, I'm not an O16 player so I don't really know the shapes

Move 71

[12:27] UnNeutral[1k]: hmmm

Move 72

[12:28] bugcat[4k]: Variation: I'd consider the double hane in the lower right

Move 73

[12:28] bugcat[4k]: Variation: or else just the stretch

[12:29] bugcat[4k]: these days, I almost always find myself criticising the "hane wall mark 2 junseki"

[12:29] bugcat[4k]: Variation: why not just play the proper move?

Move 74

[12:30] bugcat[4k]: Variation: nuuuu, an armpit hit :|

[12:30] bugcat[4k]: Variation: I think White can go this deep, no?

[12:31] UnNeutral[1k]: ...

[12:31] bugcat[4k]: hmm, a little risky with the left side being what it is

[12:31] UnNeutral[1k]: yeah going deeeeeeeep

Move 76

[12:31] bugcat[4k]: Variation: mb just this one then

Move 80

[12:32] bugcat[4k]: Variation: just take the hane-on-two?

Move 82

[12:33] bugcat[4k]: Variation: I think White needed a left-side play

[12:34] bugcat[4k]: Variation: Black could've bullied that group until the cows come home

[12:34] UnNeutral[1k]: oh that var is cool

Move 84

[12:35] UnNeutral[1k]: i reallly favor the middle

[12:35] bugcat[4k]: I know ^^

[12:35] bugcat[4k]: Variation: another chance to play that sort of move

[12:36] bugcat[4k]: Variation: a bit more forceful?

[12:37] bugcat[4k]: Variation: going back to the left side, I feel that White needed this, but then how does he take any more points?

[12:37] bugcat[4k]: it seems like Black can almost coast to victory

[12:38] UnNeutral[1k]: hmmm

[12:38] bugcat[4k]: I think Move 22 was the key point

[12:38] bugcat[4k]: with (22) R5, the game becomes bad for White

[12:39] bugcat[4k]: Variation: how about even playing this actively?

[12:39] UnNeutral[1k]: why doing tsumego is important game 32214043

[12:40] bugcat[4k]: actually, perhaps even (14) is the start of the rot in White's position

[12:40] bugcat[4k]: Variation: let's just leave A-B

[12:41] bugcat[4k]: I don't really like how Black played from (39) on, though...

[12:42] bugcat[4k]: still, I'm having trouble seeing how White can come back

[12:43] UnNeutral[1k]: hm

[12:43] bugcat[4k]: do you have another game we can kibitz?

[12:44] UnNeutral[1k]: Variation: W o16 wants to take the upper side. now white cannot

[12:44] UnNeutral[1k]: game 32569060

Move 204

[13:53] UnNeutral[1k]: congrats

[13:53] hitchigo[7k]: Thank you for the gqme

[13:54] Argonijt[?]: well done

[13:54] hitchigo[7k]: wish you good luck for the next round :)

[13:54] Argonijt[?]: thank you too

[13:54] Argonijt[?]: same here

[13:54] hitchigo[7k]: It was a good game

[13:54] hitchigo[7k]: Thank you uneutral

[13:54] Argonijt[?]: :)

[13:54] Argonijt[?]: yeah, i'm surprised how close it is

[13:55] Argonijt[?]: my endgame sucks

[13:55] Argonijt[?]: and you didn't fall for any tricks

[13:57] hitchigo[7k]: You were winning for a while

[13:58] Argonijt[?]: Yes, but you took great initiative on your big moyo in thhe bottom left

[13:58] Argonijt[?]: that's where i slipped, i think

[13:58] hitchigo[7k]: Variation: 17

[13:58] hitchigo[7k]: i should have done that

[13:59] hitchigo[7k]: You had big territory on the north

[13:59] hitchigo[7k]: but i thought i should not worry too much and do my stuffs

[14:00] Argonijt[?]: so that's where you slipped, i guess

[14:00] hitchigo[7k]: i was counting many times to make sure you were not in advance because of it

[14:00] Argonijt[?]: me too, kind of, but sloppy and kept thinking i was still ahead

[14:01] Argonijt[?]: you're a really concise player. i hope i've picked some of that up today.

[14:01] hitchigo[7k]: Variation: 18

[14:01] hitchigo[7k]: I would have made more point letting you live straight away :)

[14:02] hitchigo[7k]: i was too greedy

[14:02] hitchigo[7k]: thank you

[14:02] Argonijt[?]: yeah but me too, that way. 6 = L10

[14:04] Argonijt[?]: i gotta go. thanks again!

[14:04] hitchigo[7k]: thank you :) see you around

[14:04] hitchigo[7k]: good luck
