LRA1[?]: Hello everybody, you could see the pairing of the round 2 of the championnat de ligue rhône alpes here : https://ligue-rhonealpes.jeudego.org/2023/03/championnat-lra-2023/
LRA1[?]: 20 players from 7d to 8k
LRA1[?]: the 2 players are at the table we start soon
yahel.or.3[3d]: There is a camera to see the actors or a picture?
LRA1[?]: no video, sorry :)
yahel.or.3[3d]: Ok, you can send a picture?
LRA1[?]: starting now
Move 0 + 4
yahel.or.3[3d]: good luck to you
Move 0 + 5
Charlie-B[9k]: good game
Move 0 + 6
yahel.or.3[3d]: HI
Move 0 + 8
yahel.or.3[3d]: Dan 7 is a strange starter, maybe he thought he was talking about a weak player but he is putting himself at risk
LRA1[?]: Warren stand up and go outside the room
Piwh[4k]: Ayyyyy let's go
Dalan[1d]: judging from what another person said, I think motoki just likes nonstandard openings.
LRA1[?]: @yahelor nope is not the Motoki style to consider a player week
LRA1[?]: weak*
Move 0 + 10
Chlowski[1k]: Motoki likes somewhat unconventional fusekis
yahel.or.3[3d]: I would love one picture of the actors thanks in advance
Piwh[4k]: wow. Brutal drop down. Is this uncharted territory ?
Move 0 + 11
yahel.or.3[3d]: Q4?
Move 0 + 13
Dalan[1d]: fight local or to attach under one of the 3-4 points
yahel.or.3[3d]: Well, it looks like a white rascal to find the right move
Move 0 + 14
Dalan[1d]: judging from the opening, I think it will have creativity
LRA1[?]: Warren is at 10cm of the goban looking at vertical and looking for sequence
Move 0 + 20
Dalan[1d]: how many rounds is the tournament?
LRA1[?]: 5 rounds it's the 2nd
LRA1[?]: the next round is at 4pm / 4:30pm (french time)
Move 0 + 22
LRA1[?]: clock : 38min for Warren and 47mn for Motoki
Move 0 + 23
LRA1[?]: (time fisher 50mn and 15s/by each move)
yahel.or.3[3d]: ty ok
Move 0 + 25
awareplay2000[11k]: why are they making small moves? Like what does C10 do?
Move 0 + 28
LRA1[?]: Warren ha taken a full hand of black stones
Move 0 + 16
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: White life base is at stake, so moves in this area are sente
Move 0 + 30
awareplay2000[11k]: Did C10 treathen white life?
Volker_S_Halstenbek[1d]: b will end up w/o territory :-(
Move 0 + 31
awareplay2000[11k]: G7 to reduce mojo?
Move 0 + 32
LRA1[?]: G7 to prepare a cut at E7
Move 0 + 33
awareplay2000[11k]: I am no good at seeing when something is alive or not, to me it feels like white is plenty strong to make 2 eyes, but I must be wrong
Move 0 + 36
LRA1[?]: Variation: this cut
Move 0 + 29
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: It's important to not make a small life too. If you let the opponent get a gigantic strength outside, 2 points living isn't much
Move 0 + 33
awareplay2000[11k]: that makes sense, thanks, I am very new at Go so just trying to learn
LRA1[?]: you free to ask is how you learn
Move 0 + 34
awareplay2000[11k]: appreciate it
segev60000[3k]: w in total control he difuse that b infulance , i would prefer w here
Move 0 + 35
awareplay2000[11k]: yea, was thinking the same, the C-row has seemingly been rendered harmless, though could create some mojo out of it later on I guess?
awareplay2000[11k]: but White bottom mojo looks huge
Move 0 + 36
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: Les pairings sont disponibles quelque part ?
Move 0 + 37
segev60000[3k]: w cant make really good thing on bottom, but center is mroe like it
Move 0 + 38
awareplay2000[11k]: I see
awareplay2000[11k]: why can't he make something good at bottom?
LRA1[?]: Toru Immamura was lloking the game
Move 0 + 39
segev60000[3k]: but also nto need to put so much energy there board still empty and thats very hard moyo to maintain
Move 0 + 40
awareplay2000[11k]: yea, true
segev60000[3k]: he need mroe than one stone to secure bottom, also you can see now
awareplay2000[11k]: would O2 have been too slow for white earlier?
awareplay2000[11k]: not enough influence to secure bottom
Move 0 + 41
segev60000[3k]: yea because he need more than one stone to secure that moyo and b pretty strong there
awareplay2000[11k]: I like how white pacified black outside on the left, but think black still pretty decent now with corner? Guess it will be about how black deals with F-G-rows
Move 0 + 42
awareplay2000[11k]: oh that looks strong
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: Game feel even for now
segev60000[3k]: yup it does
awareplay2000[11k]: C17 felt really strong, curious to see how black will handle it
Move 0 + 45
awareplay2000[11k]: is R17 for white a viable play or do you lose that fight always?
Move 0 + 46
segev60000[3k]: b will probably give corner in order to have advatge on the top
Move 0 + 47
awareplay2000[11k]: I think if black would have given corner and top sight might be too much
LRA1[?]: Clock : black 32min white 43min
segev60000[3k]: the problm with taking coners, that pretty strong, that it makes infulance and great potential, r17 can be deadly for w when board that empty
awareplay2000[11k]: I see, yea that makes sense
segev60000[3k]: if b q18 its slow, no need to hurry there
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: Would like to hane here
awareplay2000[11k]: on G17?
segev60000[3k]: w should take corner now
LRA1[?]: localy q17 would be better than Q18 i think
segev60000[3k]: q17 problem because you lack ladder
segev60000[3k]: of my bad you dont lack :)
awareplay2000[11k]: mind playing the ladder? I don't see it at all?
segev60000[3k]: go with q16 ladder, its ok for w i misread
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: Feel like white moyo will be massive if he want to
Move 0 + 48
LRA1[?]: remind me an old joseki :)
segev60000[3k]: building center cant be with one stone, still early
awareplay2000[11k]: seems tempting for black to take corner I think?
segev60000[3k]: giving b corner that should be intresting now
awareplay2000[11k]: black still has left side to reduce white moyo
awareplay2000[11k]: and bottom side
segev60000[3k]: w still dont have moyo, he cant build it that easily lol
awareplay2000[11k]: yea, I guess influence
LRA1[?]: moyo are not for points it's for fight
awareplay2000[11k]: feels like black could be ahead with 2.5 corners
awareplay2000[11k]: I thought moyo was like empty space you loosely surrounded?
segev60000[3k]: yea but o2 make things complicated there
segev60000[3k]: w have no shape to evolve that yet
awareplay2000[11k]: I see
Move 0 + 50
segev60000[3k]: c15
awareplay2000[11k]: why was black thinking so long about C18? wait.. they split the corner that way
segev60000[3k]: because if he b18 and w c15 its problem
segev60000[3k]: c15 i belive he win the semai without so much complications, lets see
awareplay2000[11k]: how does Q10 look to you? if this corner is resolved? What is the next biggest move for black?
awareplay2000[11k]: what is semai?
Move 0 + 51
segev60000[3k]: ummmm, semai is when two group fight who eat the group first
awareplay2000[11k]: thanks
LRA1[?]: Motoki do "yes" with this head
Move 0 + 52
segev60000[3k]: oh thats bad for b
awareplay2000[11k]: yea now white still gets top side
awareplay2000[11k]: and eats away at corner?
segev60000[3k]: not just that, w get really strong infulance
LRA1[?]: I think we learn a lot from 7d move :)
Move 0 + 56
segev60000[3k]: wonder why not c15 , maybe he saw something
awareplay2000[11k]: wow that looked ugly from black why E18 instead of D18?
LRA1[?]: d18 bad shape, and now with e18 you could strike at G18
segev60000[3k]: oh you want g18, there isnt liberty problem for b to take e18
segev60000[3k]: g18 in yose not now
awareplay2000[11k]: alright, thanks!
Move 0 + 58
awareplay2000[11k]: didn't realize that was bad shape
Move 0 + 60
Trevoke[8k]: Variation: I think it's because if B plays D18 the corner is dead, but don't take my word for it
Move 0 + 62
awareplay2000[11k]: white really gave black an ugly corner
segev60000[3k]: if thats aji had ladder :/
Trevoke[8k]: I'm not sure this variation makes sense
Trevoke[8k]: so proofread requested :p
segev60000[3k]: what do you mean tre?
Move 0 + 63
Trevoke[8k]: The variation I shared, I don't know if it makes sense. I suggest that if B D18 then corner only has one eye.
Move 0 + 60
segev60000[3k]: ah well in that varitation you have liberty for dangerous cut, but also d18 is no need better e18
Move 0 + 68
segev60000[3k]: if w make weak shape on corner that have liberty and no eyes, its can be very false for w
segev60000[3k]: on b corner*
Move 0 + 72
LRA1[?]: black was not sure for R16, he stoped twice before playing it
segev60000[3k]: yea he was desprate for sente and hard to know if r16 lack is enough
Move 0 + 73
Darkhan[6k]: Hello, is there any stream about this game on twitch ?
LRA1[?]: moyo mojo
awareplay2000[11k]: O.. that's a daring move?
LRA1[?]: no stream sorry
awareplay2000[11k]: guess just a probe
Darkhan[6k]: No problem thanks for your answer :)
awareplay2000[11k]: should black be worried on left side at all? seems like it could become in danger or?
awareplay2000[11k]: I guess he can make eyes at bottom for sure?
segev60000[3k]: it likely to be alive its ok
Move 0 + 74
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: Feel like w has more potential, b think he need to act because he will lose otherwise
LRA1[?]: clock black : 20min white 39min
awareplay2000[11k]: yea definitely feels like uphill struggle for black
Move 0 + 78
segev60000[3k]: i feel w only lead at best with komi, i wouldnt say he desprate yet
segev60000[3k]: o6 was good move
Move 0 + 80
awareplay2000[11k]: I think bottom side will decide game
Move 0 + 82
awareplay2000[11k]: is 17 row for white dead?
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: Still a close game probably, but small margin is enough
awareplay2000[11k]: no, black is dead on N-row right?
segev60000[3k]: ah no awareplay, n17 was to get the n15 sente
awareplay2000[11k]: why did he make that attack?
awareplay2000[11k]: I see
Move 0 + 83
segev60000[3k]: because b searhc to make the right side
Move 0 + 84
segev60000[3k]: also leave good threat in case of ko
Move 0 + 85
Trevoke[8k]: B has roughly 30 points on the board - and W on the board has roughly 25, so with komi, game is still even at the moment
awareplay2000[11k]: interesting
segev60000[3k]: seem about right
LRA1[?]: komi is 7.5 here in France
awareplay2000[11k]: at what point does something like N2 secure the bottom?
Trevoke[8k]: Maybe I'm underestimating the players but I think that still means the game is roughly even :)
Move 0 + 86
segev60000[3k]: when w will seal top somehow, he maybe will search for cut soon
Move 0 + 87
segev60000[3k]: p7 in good position, but seem slow
segev60000[3k]: wonder
awareplay2000[11k]: is something like M6 viable or too slow?
Trevoke[8k]: N2 isn't very good yet because it's unclear what will happen with the N6 boundary
awareplay2000[11k]: makes sense yea
segev60000[3k]: yea m6 too slow, w not leading that much
Trevoke[8k]: But N2 has the potential to be a very large endgame move, over 10 points I think
awareplay2000[11k]: what about M13?
segev60000[3k]: i think he counting if p7 enough
awareplay2000[11k]: what makes P7 good?
segev60000[3k]: p8 trap in ladder if need
segev60000[3k]: r9 fix it
awareplay2000[11k]: r9 for black?
awareplay2000[11k]: seems like that might help black strenghten moyo
segev60000[3k]: but b can decide to o8 and have enoguht to win, really hard to say
segev60000[3k]: r9 occupy by w , also a ladder fix to take p8
Trevoke[8k]: M13 for W would be an overplay (get cut off), M13 for B would invite W to build more strength in the center by playing near the sector line - maybe N11 or something - and while that means B willpotentially enclose another 7 or 8 points, W's position in the center will yield more potential points for W
Move 0 + 88
Trevoke[8k]: I was just about the talk about the cut at P7
awareplay2000[11k]: this is interesting move
Trevoke[8k]: It's a shape move, which is always nice
Trevoke[8k]: it's where B would want to play to make the table shape
awareplay2000[11k]: what is a shape move?
Move 0 + 89
segev60000[3k]: yea my second thought, it can be sente to get also n6
Trevoke[8k]: a shape move either creates a known shape on the board or prevents the opponent from making a known shape on the board
segev60000[3k]: but w need to be creative now because he is behind
awareplay2000[11k]: I see thanks
Move 0 + 90
awareplay2000[11k]: is the table always crooked?
Move 0 + 92
Trevoke[8k]: If you're asking whether multiple different shapes have the same name, the answer is no, though sometimes you have a "small something" and a "large something" for instance
awareplay2000[11k]: right, cool
awareplay2000[11k]: what is the danger of cutting here? That black runs rampant and connects to his left side?
awareplay2000[11k]: for white on N2 that is
Move 0 + 98
segev60000[3k]: he b smart he will take points on the elft side
segev60000[3k]: if b*
Trevoke[8k]: Now that M6 is on the board, W needs this area to become points
Move 0 + 99
awareplay2000[11k]: is this really a viable attack? I am so surprised that he thinks he can kill that shape
segev60000[3k]: yose moves
Move 0 + 100
segev60000[3k]: was for pont not for kill
Trevoke[8k]: it's a reduction, possibly trying to set up a liberty shortage to get some forcing moves around B12
awareplay2000[11k]: I see that makes more sense
Trevoke[8k]: it also helps ensure that the B group is alive no matter what, which is important because now this area needs to get resolved somehow
Move 0 + 101
Trevoke[8k]: Which among other things means B really wants to get a move either at G9 or ... Well... Somewhere in the center, to reduce further.
Move 0 + 102
awareplay2000[11k]: yea white really setting up for rather large moyo
Trevoke[8k]: Oops.
segev60000[3k]: cant belive w caught that sente
LRA1[?]: timing, 7d timing always impressive
awareplay2000[11k]: you think white has been sitting on D2 threat all along just waiting for right moment?
WhithaKyuKyu[2k]: Had my eyes thee since g17
segev60000[3k]: i got to say b for 2d agaisnt 7d old his own pretty well :)
awareplay2000[11k]: what is next for white? how far can he extend mojo? up to K12?
segev60000[3k]: well its double edge sword, if w cant make center he will invade right side
segev60000[3k]: thats is if b cant use that sente for something
awareplay2000[11k]: what about L13? Is that too loose?
segev60000[3k]: for who?
awareplay2000[11k]: for white
segev60000[3k]: well i would try to make attmept to invade firts and than l13
LRA1[?]: clock black 11min white 34min
awareplay2000[11k]: why would you like to invade first?
segev60000[3k]: because it will make two scenrio, or w get wall for that center, or w will invade
awareplay2000[11k]: you mean to keep sente?
awareplay2000[11k]: makes sense
Move 0 + 104
segev60000[3k]: because if b defend the attemp to invade w get wall and not one stone
Trevoke[8k]: B played well but has not been aggressive enough in the game to keep the balance
Move 0 + 106
awareplay2000[11k]: white really snapped off N10 saying NO :(
Move 0 + 108
Trevoke[8k]: Which isn't to say that was easy to do
segev60000[3k]: b still more than have a chance lol
segev60000[3k]: he pull a good move
awareplay2000[11k]: this looks pretty bad for blck now his right side is gone
segev60000[3k]: the yose from this l11 aji will decide the game now
Move 0 + 109
segev60000[3k]: right side is excnhge for center like i said b know he will lose like that
segev60000[3k]: he have to reduce it a little to have a chance to take w territory
Mbrez[3d]: ah but this gives the connection on the 2nd line for free this move no?
Move 0 + 110
segev60000[3k]: thats why f10 for w is so crucial
Trevoke[8k]: According to Score Estimator, which on OGS during reviews or when kibitzing is a low-playout katago, W is up by 15 now
Mbrez[3d]: motoki goes solid
awareplay2000[11k]: yea F10 was a great play
segev60000[3k]: which move mbrez?
Mbrez[3d]: I'd have ansr m3 and if black hane, just nobi
Trevoke[8k]: But the game is sufficiently closed off that I think we can agree in the past 30 moves W has made ~25 points in the South area and B hasn't really made new points -- say generously 10 in the Northeast corner
Mbrez[3d]: but probably that's more solid this ay, i didnt count
segev60000[3k]: well center now more imprtnat than the 2 line there
Mbrez[3d]: but if you can have both for -3 pts it's not a bad trade
Mbrez[3d]: like, m3, if black hane on the top - cut, if on the lower side, nobi l6
Move 0 + 112
segev60000[3k]: see your point
Move 0 + 114
LRA1[?]: clack !
Move 0 + 116
awareplay2000[11k]: he put that on the board with emphasis?
Move 0 + 118
Mbrez[3d]: no this is very catastrophic
Move 0 + 120
Mbrez[3d]: w
awareplay2000[11k]: oh really.. huh, not seeing it yet, what did he do wrong?
Mbrez[3d]: is it me or white is losing points to be solid?
LRA1[?]: clock : black 5min white 35min
Trevoke[8k]: you'd have to count, awareplay2000
Trevoke[8k]: @mbrez no, I think you're right
segev60000[3k]: yup you are right
segev60000[3k]: probably feel the lead
awareplay2000[11k]: how do you count efficiently? Or do you literally count every spot?
segev60000[3k]: :)
Move 0 + 122
Trevoke[8k]: Counting's kind of a big topic, but in short, during the game, there are some basic shapes that you can draw and count intersections inside to estimate points, and in order to do it fast you do it by pairs of intersections of groups of 5
Trevoke[8k]: Variation: how many points is this?
Move 0 + 123
awareplay2000[11k]: interesting, will be something for the future, guess that only starts being important if you are advanced player
Move 0 + 124
Mbrez[3d]: but Motoki is right to be careful, last time we played rengo with warren against him and Baptiste (who beat Loïc 3d) and we won beautifully :p
segev60000[3k]: this fight decide the game probably
Move 0 + 122
awareplay2000[11k]: 13 points?
Move 0 + 129
Mbrez[3d]: this looks very difficult for black, white had the lead and black has no space to live
Move 0 + 130
Mbrez[3d]: and is short in time
LRA1[?]: black 3.30min
LRA1[?]: vs 36min
Mbrez[3d]: this feels like resigne sequence :(
GrapefruitGirl[7k]: Does white need to kill here?
LRA1[?]: yeah Warren seems desperate
segev60000[3k]: i think he have to make it diffcult, he is behind, but well i do agree i wouldnt push that much there
Trevoke[8k]: I imagine B is going to atari L12 and try ... something
Mbrez[3d]: black can die on the left now
Move 0 + 133
Mbrez[3d]: or at least lose a big piece
segev60000[3k]: yea thats the rpoblem
Trevoke[8k]: oh indeed I missed that
Move 0 + 122
awareplay2000[11k]: black can life on bottom left corner right?
Move 0 + 134
Trevoke[8k]: no, bottom left corner gives one eye, not two
segev60000[3k]: seem to me over
Mbrez[3d]: actually maybe it's alive
Move 0 + 122
awareplay2000[11k]: oh interesting
Move 0 + 134
Trevoke[8k]: also don't take my word for it there are people better at reading than me in chat
Move 0 + 122
awareplay2000[11k]: I think time alone makes this game over no?
Move 0 + 134
GrapefruitGirl[7k]: Does A1 live for black because of B6?
segev60000[3k]: yea i think a1 is when b has no liberty
Mbrez[3d]: i think there is some miai between dead shape playing b4 and middle
segev60000[3k]: b is alive i feel
segev60000[3k]: but he would probably have to give c12
Mbrez[3d]: because white can't threaten to cut the middle and kill an eye in sente, can he?
LRA1[?]: 1min for black
Move 0 + 136
segev60000[3k]: either way b lose, by points or by dying doesnt matter
Move 0 + 138
Mbrez[3d]: ok g 13 was last move
GrapefruitGirl[7k]: Where do you guys see the time?
Mbrez[3d]: time-throw
LRA1[?]: 30sec
segev60000[3k]: lra announce it grap, it broadcasting
LRA1[?]: 15sec
awareplay2000[11k]: interesting game
Move 0 + 140
LRA1[?]: bip bip 25sec by move
Move 0 + 142
Mbrez[3d]: now black can die on the left
LRA1[?]: 15sec by move sorry
Move 0 + 148
awareplay2000[11k]: there is no way black can life right?
Move 0 + 150
segev60000[3k]: nope
segev60000[3k]: w not weak
LRA1[?]: finish
LRA1[?]: white win by resign
LRA1[?]: thx for following this game :)
segev60000[3k]: f10 by w probably was the tunrning point
awareplay2000[11k]: thanks for broadcasting it
segev60000[3k]: thx lra
Move 0 + 77
awareplay2000[11k]: yea, I could see that be the case
Move 0 + 90
awareplay2000[11k]: or E2 really to set it up
Move 0 + 107
awareplay2000[11k]: thanks for the advice all
Move 0 + 91
segev60000[3k]: i would n9 first but dunno
segev60000[3k]: hard case
LRA1[?]: next, round 3 at 4:30pm i think
