I've found no moves that would really be good for me in this skirmish.
But at least this one looks interesting.

too, but I'd be in two fights at the same time then, including a ko, which, though typically go, is nothing I have ever played on 9x9. Very confusing.
I'm unhiding Kirby's comments regarding his second to last move (
Kirby's comments only), and it is funny to see how he analyses the game / my possible moves totally differently than I do:
For me it was already a fact that he has all the upper left corner, as far as his picket fence goes around there, and that therefore it is neither possible nor wise to play inside his borders.
Maybe this is 9x9 mentality too (or just the knowledge I won't be able to win anything in close combat there).
Kirby's expected moves in there made no sense to me.
Ferran told me in our first game (not related to the Malkovich!) that people like 3-3 invasions. But I only know that, when invading or playing inside someones territory, I always get captured while frantically trying to make 2 eyes there...
