Move 9

February 22, 2014

[22:46] ruster[?]: here

[22:46] ruster[?]: going for the star points

[22:47] ruster[?]: Q10 or K10 is better

[22:47] ruster[?]: a bit

[22:47] saxmaam[?]: so you'd take bigger bites ...?

[22:47] ruster[?]: but D7 is okay as well

[22:47] ruster[?]: here yes

[22:47] saxmaam[?]: ok

[22:47] ruster[?]: what I did with D15 and D17 is small

[22:47] ruster[?]: but it protects the corner

Move 13

[22:48] ruster[?]: here you can attack me

[22:48] saxmaam[?]: like k9?

[22:48] ruster[?]: e.g. R14

[22:48] ruster[?]: K9 is not so good

Move 14

[22:48] saxmaam[?]: ok. say more about k9

Move 14 + 7

[22:49] ruster[?]: something like this

[22:49] ruster[?]: is not so good for you

[22:49] ruster[?]: you will have smaller area

[22:49] ruster[?]: when you place the first stone for an attack

[22:49] saxmaam[?]: while you set up good perimeter on bigger area. i see

[22:49] ruster[?]: a direct touch is not so good

Move 14 + 1

[22:49] ruster[?]: if I play

Move 14 + 2

[22:50] ruster[?]: J9, you have to defend

Move 14 + 8

[22:50] ruster[?]: it's not that bad

[22:50] ruster[?]: but at this stage going for something bigger works

Move 14

[22:50] ruster[?]: so like

Move 14 + 5

[22:51] ruster[?]: or so

[22:51] ruster[?]: alternatively

[22:51] ruster[?]: you can attack my corner directly

[22:52] ruster[?]: so like this

Move 89

[22:52] ruster[?]: here

[22:53] ruster[?]: capturing at K8

[22:53] ruster[?]: is a waste of time

[22:53] ruster[?]: you can kill J8 and J9 anyway

[22:53] ruster[?]: at this point you can reduce my attack a bit at K2 e.g

Move 90 + 1

[22:54] ruster[?]: if I attack, you can defend the corner now

Move 90 + 5

[22:55] ruster[?]: I don't have enough space to live with the stones M3 and O3

[22:55] ruster[?]: but I'm only learning these things too right now :)

Move 94

[22:55] ruster[?]: here

[22:55] ruster[?]: D2 is a must

[22:55] saxmaam[?]: so I saw ;)

[22:55] ruster[?]: otherwise you lose territory

[22:56] ruster[?]: you have to play it instantly after F1

[22:56] saxmaam[?]: right

[22:56] ruster[?]: so, that's it

[22:56] saxmaam[?]: thanks for the lesson. let's both get better :)

[22:56] ruster[?]: that's the purpose :)

[22:56] ruster[?]: thanks for the game

[22:57] ruster[?]: see you later

[22:57] saxmaam[?]: thank you. bye
