Move 0 + 36
April 17, 2017
tip1[?]: Hello and welcome to this very exciting round of Paris International go tournament
tip1[?]: both players of equal rank : what will happen is this promising game ?
Move 0 + 53
vaurien[?]: Yop, is iut a blitz game ??
tip1[?]: well, both players have 1hr and 30 minutes
tip1[?]: 1hr15 minutes left for black, 1hr 16 minutes left for white
Move 0 + 57
HisokaH[?]: Coucou
vaurien[?]: Yo Chris
HisokaH[?]: :)
Move 0 + 56
Schachus[?]: why did black exchange 55 for 56?
Schachus[?]: doesnt this take away his possibility to play at 56 if circumstances allow?
Move 0 + 67
HisokaH[?]: i don't think it's interesting for black to play at the bottom, he's building something on the right and he got yose at the bottom
Move 0 + 69
Schachus[?]: r6 looks reall deep
Move 0 + 71
Schachus[?]: I thought black might answer r8, because bottom right is already so strong, but what do I know...
Move 0 + 73
tip1[?]: Dai sighed when he saw this move
Racine[?]: N5 seems very defensive
Move 0 + 74
Schachus[?]: thats what I thought too, but probably it isnt, else why would he sigh?
Move 0 + 75
tip1[?]: another white's sigh when he saw the move
Move 0 + 76
tip1[?]: Dai smashed the stone at the board
Racine[?]: is it possible for black to play at R9 here?
Racine[?]: or is the cut too severe...
Move 0 + 77
tip1[?]: is black going for the whole thing, or is this move considering the overall balance with white strength in the north ?
Move 0 + 78
Racine[?]: I don't think black expect to kill that group
Racine[?]: there is too much space...
tip1[?]: let's check both player's time
tip1[?]: black has 1hr 2 min left, white 1hr 7 min
Racine[?]: they are playing quite fast
Schachus[?]: maybe the black cap was aiming to also strengthen the group in case of the cut at o5?
Move 0 + 79
HisokaH[?]: i guess black want to keep an attack on white's group, if r9 as suggested before, maybe it's too small and the attack is lost because black will have weak group too
Schachus[?]: and he is now going to try r9?!
Schachus[?]: oh, cool he already did that
Move 0 + 81
HisokaH[?]: (what i said is for l8 instead of r9)
Racine[?]: at least with this attacks black totally counters any influence that white had in the center
Schachus[?]: the problem for black is, if he builds streghth from the center while attacking, then h13 is in the perfect place to destroy that
Schachus[?]: so I'm not sure what black wants to gain, killing doesnt seem reasonable
Move 0 + 83
Racine[?]: at the time of N8, white was probably hoping to give up the two stones on the right to build something in the center
HisokaH[?]: he want to hunt, not to kill
Racine[?]: black played against that
Move 0 + 84
tip1[?]: iis white aiming at R10 and cross ct ?
Move 0 + 88
Schachus[?]: yes he wants to hunt, but what is his gain from hunting
Racine[?]: he doesn't need to gain much, he already has solid territory in 3 corners
tip1[?]: maybe this way white is trying to get N12 and R10 as miai to get a living shape...
Schachus[?]: but with top left white it doesnt seem clear to me who has more points
Schachus[?]: ok, maybe black just wants to get sente take the left side and that would be enough
tip1[?]: black 54 minutes left, white 1hr and 3 min
Move 0 + 91
Racine[?]: K5 is an interesting move
Racine[?]: L5 i mean
Racine[?]: was it so important?
Move 0 + 92
tip1[?]: well you guessed the next move
tip1[?]: ^^
Racine[?]: :-)
Move 0 + 93
Schachus[?]: black want to fix o5 cut in the best way? Not sure how it's supposed to work
Move 0 + 94
Schachus[?]: I dont even understand, why white cant play n4
Schachus[?]: ah, he did
Racine[?]: then you're 8d :-)
tip1[?]: white hit the clock pretty strongly
tip1[?]: there is no suspense if you can guess all the moves ^^
Racine[?]: there might be some aji with H3 and K3?
tip1[?]: (just joking, keep guessing please)
Racine[?]: are both players undefeated so far?
Schachus[?]: yes
Move 0 + 95
tip1[?]: yes
Schachus[?]: ok, this is just way above my head
Schachus[?]: is he making ko threats?
Schachus[?]: but how does he want to start the ko?
Move 0 + 96
tip1[?]: maybe white is aiming to cut the center
Racine[?]: now the cut at M7 would be painful....
Schachus[?]: I thought black is going to give up the two stones and cut around o7 or o8
Racine[?]: if white can capture L8 and K10 it would be worth much more
Move 0 + 99
Schachus[?]: oops didnt expect that
Move 0 + 100
tip1[?]: and black sighed
Move 0 + 103
tip1[?]: black hit is head looking disappointed
Racine[?]: is there a way for white to save the R7 stones? or maybe it is not worth it?
tip1[?]: my gess is
tip1[?]: white Q9 b Q8 white R8
Move 0 + 104
Racine[?]: good guess so far :p
tip1[?]: we will see
Schachus[?]: isnt some move on the left also big
Schachus[?]: like c10 or something
tip1[?]: black left the room, and white is looking at other player's game
tip1[?]: let me update you about the other players in the room
tip1[?]: third table is a match between Gao Jiaxin 6d and Viktor Lin 6d
Move 0 + 106
tip1[?]: ok both players came back and played their moves pretty fast, so let's update you later
Racine[?]: so Q10 was the move
Move 0 + 107
Racine[?]: with Q7 still a possibility now
Move 0 + 110
Racine[?]: J6 feels very big
Move 0 + 111
tip1[?]: D12 feels like knocking at white's door
Yvlain[?]: Bonjour
tip1[?]: bonjour
Move 0 + 112
Racine[?]: I guess white will try to capture that stone
tip1[?]: and with D10 white welcomes his guest ?
Move 0 + 113
tip1[?]: black has 40 minutes left ; black 48
Move 0 + 118
tip1[?]: A16 being sente, black seems alive without adding an extra stone
tip1[?]: will he slide to C9 or jump once more ?
Racine[?]: was R19 really necessary? this exchange seems good for black...
Racine[?]: E19*
Move 0 + 119
tip1[?]: with this move black seems to control left area now
tip1[?]: will white D10 finally be isolated ?
Schachus[?]: but blacks corner seems to be in trouble, no
tip1[?]: actually if white plays D19, black can play A16, white C14 and then connect C18
Schachus[?]: ah, no a16 is sente
Move 0 + 120
Schachus[?]: yes
Racine[?]: it is just barely alive; but that's enough
Yvlain[?]: Exactly
Schachus[?]: still ko though
Schachus[?]: d19 a16 c14 c18 a18
tip1[?]: yes
tip1[?]: thank you
Move 0 + 119
lichigo[?]: Bonjour, combien de temps reste il?
Move 0 + 120
Racine[?]: A18 instead of C18 in that variation
tip1[?]: 35 minutes pour noir, 43 pour blanc
Schachus[?]: ah yes
Move 0 + 120
Chilltime[?]: top left is alive no ko
Move 0 + 120
Schachus[?]: and if white starts at a18?
Chilltime[?]: d19
Chilltime[?]: hm
Chilltime[?]: thats ko though
Schachus[?]: b19 ko, right?
Chilltime[?]: just a sek
pagia[?]: What is J10 means?B can cut at F10 or e9
Move 0 + 120
Chilltime[?]: b19 a19
Move 0 + 121
Schachus[?]: ah, cool
Move 0 + 125
Chilltime[?]: hm
Chilltime[?]: nah
Move 0 + 121
Schachus[?]: no, then d19
Move 0 + 125
Chilltime[?]: yeah
Chilltime[?]: and still ko
Move 0 + 122
Chilltime[?]: so top left ko :P
Move 0 + 121
Schachus[?]: would be surprising if it was alive like that, because white e19 would have been a super fail move if black could live in sente
Move 0 + 122
Chilltime[?]: true
Move 0 + 123
Racine[?]: O8 now?
pagia[?]: o7 not o8
Gedemus[?]: does anybody know the game rate between Kim and Dai ?
Schachus[?]: I think their score is probably 0:0
tip1[?]: i think it is their first time playing together
pagia[?]: but I think W is no time to connect at O7 now
Gedemus[?]: I remember a win by Kim in Paris
tip1[?]: it was another Kim ^^
Schachus[?]: when?
lichigo[?]: I just know doesnt have a good win rate with korean players.
tip1[?]: Kim Youngsam
Schachus[?]: yes, it might have been kim youngsam
tip1[?]: two years ago
Move 0 + 124
lichigo[?]: Kim youngsame won twice against him
Move 0 + 123
Gedemus[?]: oops, yes, not the sme KIm, sorry
tip1[?]: Dai also won once against him
lichigo[?]: Yes in the paris meijin
Move 0 + 125
Gedemus[?]: hard to say for me who is leading now
tip1[?]: time is even again
Move 0 + 126
tip1[?]: black 32 minutes left, white 33 minutes left
pagia[?]: I think J10 is an problem move, I think the battle at center is easier for B now
lichigo[?]: I think black is a bit better
tip1[?]: if you are white, playing away with K12 could reveal strong player's ability to change plan when they notice their move isn't satisfying ^^
tip1[?]: if you are *right
Schachus[?]: if the fight is settled, what is bigger, top left ko, or o7?
pagia[?]: P7 group for W have no time to save,N10 will be sharp for B,and connect D10 group and F3 group,I think W can't save such several problem at the same time
Move 0 + 127
tip1[?]: black smashed the stone at the board
Move 0 + 129
Gedemus[?]: i dont see how w can save p7 group
Racine[?]: O8 would connect
Move 0 + 136
tip1[?]: black 25 minutes left ; white 30 min
Move 0 + 138
pagia[?]: O8 is gote to save P7 group ,because N12 group have weak point at n10(break eyes),fall into gote will make W in trouble
Move 0 + 140
tip1[?]: black looks very focused
Racine[?]: is L7 enough for black here?
tip1[?]: he almost placed a stone around O8 and took it back
Move 0 + 141
tip1[?]: white sighed pretty deeply
Move 0 + 144
Racine[?]: this is becoming dangerous
Move 0 + 145
Schachus[?]: for whom?
Move 0 + 146
Racine[?]: I don't know :-)
Move 0 + 148
pagia[?]: Yup,W give up to save P7 and make dragon alive first
Schachus[?]: strange shape
Racine[?]: a square is not the best eye shape..
pagia[?]: this is pain for w
Move 0 + 150
lichigo[?]: The game seems over for w....
Schachus[?]: why?
Racine[?]: as long as there is fighting there is a chance
pagia[?]: G9 is good move, but situation is still good for B
pagia[?]: h9 SORRY
lichigo[?]: White seems dead inside
Schachus[?]: b needs to connect the two stones and then w can live I guess
pagia[?]: w can live by attack two stone of B,that what H9 means
Move 0 + 155
Chilltime[?]: doesnt look good for white i think
tip1[?]: 10 minutes left for black, 28 for white
lichigo[?]: Even though he lives situation is better for black
Racine[?]: is it time for O7 now?
tip1[?]: the question is : what does G10 mean ?
tip1[?]: is black being patient and inviting white to add a move to be able to take P7 stones ?
Racine[?]: if white had played G10, there was some chance of attacking the black group...
tip1[?]: or is there no way to kill white's group ?
pagia[?]: no,if W save P7 now,B cut at G5 ,G8 group is in danger
tip1[?]: and also : can white afford to lose P7, or should he play all-in in a big gamble ?
Racine[?]: at least he has some time advantage to think about it
pagia[?]: now can confirm that, J10 is really a bad move
Schachus[?]: I think e19 was the problem
Move 0 + 156
Schachus[?]: o7 isnt even so big, looks like 15 points
Schachus[?]: a little less
Move 0 + 160
pagia[?]: I think e19 is a bit slow,but after that,I think the game still can go on.
Racine[?]: if white manages to capture all those black stone, he's in a good shape
tip1[?]: now is black going for the kill ?
Move 0 + 161
Racine[?]: of course that's a big "if" :-)
tip1[?]: white facepalmed
Chilltime[?]: lol
Move 0 + 155
vaurien[?]: with G10 black can connect its stones ib the middle even if he loses the three stones in g10.. and he can kill the white group
Move 0 + 161
Chilltime[?]: i think its time to resign
Chilltime[?]: :P
Move 0 + 162
tip1[?]: black has 5 minutes left, white 17:42
tip1[?]: 17 minute 42 seconds, precisely :)
Move 0 + 170
pagia[?]: even B ignore H12 ,he still can live by sent,LOL
Move 0 + 171
tip1[?]: black 3 minutes, white 14 minutes left
pagia[?]: oops , I think d13 should be C14...that is a sente
Schachus[?]: but c14 loses a lot in the corner
Schachus[?]: whats wrong eith d13
Move 0 + 172
pagia[?]: D13 make B need escape at H12,and W can kill F16 group by sente
Move 0 + 175
pagia[?]: because b C13 first, W c15, B D13,that B make an eye at c13
tip1[?]: black 44 seconds left before byo-yomi
tip1[?]: white 10 minutes
pagia[?]: *C14 first
Schachus[?]: what is the corner now? ko if black plays?
Schachus[?]: and if white plays?
Move 0 + 181
Racine[?]: here is your answer :p
Move 0 + 182
Schachus[?]: also ko it seems
Move 0 + 183
Schachus[?]: so why did white play there?
Move 0 + 182
pagia[?]: seems B have many threat at lower
tip1[?]: black kind of took back his move and entered byo yomi
Move 0 + 185
explo[?]: black would have been alive with d19 Schachus
Move 0 + 177
Schachus[?]: ah yes
Schachus[?]: so it didnt change much that white got c14
Move 0 + 186
Schachus[?]: a little better ko for white
Move 0 + 199
tip1[?]: black and white seem to have reached to an agreement
Move 0 + 186
pagia[?]: is black lose this ko and the game, that is the problem makes by D13
Move 0 + 202
Schachus[?]: I dont think black loses the game
Move 0 + 208
Schachus[?]: although he lost the ko
Move 0 + 212
lichigo[?]: Black wins
Move 0 + 211
pagia[?]: yes, threat for W isn't enough, so w fix the ko too early
tip1[?]: white resigned
tip1[?]: Variation: 1
