vir783[8k]: It's mostly because I don't like playing against frameworks as white
Titvins[5k]: Could be complicated for you if I take sente on the last corner
Titvins[5k]: yes I wanted to play my chinese fuseki :)
Move 5 + 6
Titvins[5k]: I think this is better for white
Titvins[5k]: because you can now play the last corner
vir783[8k]: Ok
Move 5
Titvins[5k]: if here I attack your stone
Move 6 + 9
Titvins[5k]: White is alive
Titvins[5k]: Black has a huge wall
Move 6 + 7
vir783[8k]: I was thinking about maybe sacrificing the approach stone and taking an enclosure
vir783[8k]: If you followed up
Move 6 + 1
Titvins[5k]: where do you want to play?
Move 6 + 2
vir783[8k]: Enclose the bottom left
Move 6 + 2
Titvins[5k]: ok but in the process you lost your approach stone
vir783[8k]: 3 on 1 feels like it's better to sacrifice and maybe use aji in the corner later on
vir783[8k]: In the bottom right
Titvins[5k]: yes I understand
Titvins[5k]: but as I see in games
Titvins[5k]: you can play here also
Move 6 + 7
Titvins[5k]: I think it is better to enclose after you play around your approach stone
Move 12
vir783[8k]: Ok
Titvins[5k]: for exemple here I could have attack your stone
Move 14
Titvins[5k]: here
Titvins[5k]: my four stones are able to escape
Titvins[5k]: I should have attack
Titvins[5k]: your stone
Titvins[5k]: I was too focused on the bottom side and forgot it
Titvins[5k]: haha
Move 14 + 1
vir783[8k]: Haha it happens
Titvins[5k]: way better for black
Titvins[5k]: even if W lives in the corner
Move 17
Titvins[5k]: and here I was overconfident
Titvins[5k]: you answered well
Move 16 + 1
vir783[8k]: Thank you
Titvins[5k]: way better for black
Move 16 + 3
Titvins[5k]: here W will live probably but not a lot of points
Move 33 + 1
Titvins[5k]: I prefer this
Titvins[5k]: B has to answer
Move 33 + 7
Titvins[5k]: if no it will be something like this
Titvins[5k]: and B totally dead
Move 33 + 3
vir783[8k]: Tbh I just saw I could make a ponnuki and didn't consider this variation
Titvins[5k]: ok
vir783[8k]: Or at least capture Q5 in a ladder
Titvins[5k]: the ponnuki was ok
Titvins[5k]: but I just find this better
vir783[8k]: Yeah I agree
Titvins[5k]: you can even push I thin
Titvins[5k]: k
Move 33 + 4
Titvins[5k]: if B tenuki
Move 33 + 13
Titvins[5k]: B lives very small
Titvins[5k]: so W can be stronger
vir783[8k]: Don't think I'd be brave enough to push in a game but yeah that looks good for W
Move 43
Titvins[5k]: here I play this to force W to play R15
Titvins[5k]: if not, the 2 stones are lost
Move 43 + 5
vir783[8k]: Ok
Titvins[5k]: you knew the movements we played?
Move 62
vir783[8k]: Yeah I thought this was ok for W
Move 52
Titvins[5k]: if you can have my stone yes
Titvins[5k]: R12
vir783[8k]: Yes
Move 51 + 1
Titvins[5k]: I find this better
Move 51 + 8
Titvins[5k]: hard for black to live here
Move 51 + 2
vir783[8k]: Ah yeah that looks awkward for B
Move 51 + 6
Titvins[5k]: yes
Move 51 + 13
Titvins[5k]: maybe it can live
Titvins[5k]: but I 'm not confident on it
Move 51 + 5
Titvins[5k]: try to step on the stone
Titvins[5k]: to force the stone to go on the same line
Titvins[5k]: if not the stones will try to go to the center
Move 59
vir783[8k]: Yeah I suppose the mistake was trying to build with a ponnuki lol
Titvins[5k]: here I made a mistake I think
Titvins[5k]: and you after
Move 59 + 9
vir783[8k]: Ahh
Titvins[5k]: N16 was too far for me
Titvins[5k]: and I lost my corner
Move 59 + 3
Titvins[5k]: 2 ponnukis are better than one!
vir783[8k]: Haha indeed
Move 63
Titvins[5k]: I saw the problem and was happy you played heree
Move 63 + 5
Titvins[5k]: W has the side
Titvins[5k]: B the north
Titvins[5k]: And I think B has to play another move
Titvins[5k]: if not W will try to escape O14 stone
vir783[8k]: Yeah
Move 67
Titvins[5k]: I was happy I played this
vir783[8k]: Yeah I completely missed that move
Titvins[5k]: but don't if it works 100%
Move 67 + 7
Titvins[5k]: didn't work
Move 66 + 5
vir783[8k]: This is what I was expecting
Titvins[5k]: I should have played this
Titvins[5k]: yes most natural
Titvins[5k]: your 3 stones are in danger
Titvins[5k]: and I escaped
Move 69 + 1
Titvins[5k]: here
Titvins[5k]: your stones are dead
vir783[8k]: Ok
Titvins[5k]: but as we saw
Titvins[5k]: N12 was a weakness
vir783[8k]: Yeah
Move 69 + 10
Titvins[5k]: B has to answer
Titvins[5k]: if not B lose the semeai
vir783[8k]: Yep
Move 71
Titvins[5k]: I played this to avoid a ko fight to kill your stones
Move 69 + 14
Titvins[5k]: not very good forW
Move 70
Titvins[5k]: here difficult to save the stones for W
Move 71 + 1
Titvins[5k]: so better to protect
vir783[8k]: Yeah should have accepted they were dead
Titvins[5k]: sometines that's hard
vir783[8k]: Definitely
Titvins[5k]: but I had to asnswer so way better for W
Move 69 + 1
Titvins[5k]: and you have influence in the center
vir783[8k]: Yeah a decent bit of thickness
Move 81
vir783[8k]: This was just a misread, I didn't think you had a net for some reason
Titvins[5k]: I saw it but I focused first on taking the stones$
Titvins[5k]: don't think it was the better choice but
Move 74
Titvins[5k]: here as your stone don't stop me to take the stones
Titvins[5k]: I can play N12
Titvins[5k]: evenif I understand you didn't want me to go in your side
Move 73 + 2
vir783[8k]: Yeah it's probably better to keep my stones and let you crawl
vir783[8k]: Even if it would be painful
Titvins[5k]: I think also
Move 73 + 12
Titvins[5k]: I don't know which play was better
Titvins[5k]: but W has to protect N12 for the beginning
Titvins[5k]: and then you can protect on 2nd line
vir783[8k]: Yeah
Move 73 + 7
Titvins[5k]: Anyway, I had a fun game with you
Titvins[5k]: I'll send the results to Eoghan
