Hi, recently I found Haylee's go channel where she plays high level games on wbaduk (I think).
I've only watched a few of her games yet, and the end of this game puzzles me:


She says around 24:00 that "this black group is dead" (I don't know how to create a diagram, sry). I assume she means the group the mouse pointer points at at the time when she says that, but I can't see how that group is dead. For example it seems to me that the black group could easily link up with the upper right corner. What am I missing?
(Even earlier she said she's not worried about her group anymore (in the same area) but it seemed to me that her group only had one sure eye.)

She is talking about P16 group (black group)

This is why she doesn't respond to the blacks move on the middle left which connetcs two black groups and plays the diagonal move in order to prevent black stones from running out.

Ah, thank you. Now that you say, I notice that she circles the pointer around the P16 group a moment later.
Regarding why the white group was alive: I totally failed to notice the B-13 weakness of black. (So A-8 and B-13 are miai)

Hi peti,

Please see How to make a diagram .

It's good and easy to learn, both for yourself and for others here. :)
