I really want to cut 29 off from the 3rd line stone, but as far as I could tell all of the moves in between let black wall off half of his moyo. So, new plan: settle in this half, and then fight my way out of the other half. Plus, I'm not sure fuego will be able to get a good result in this corner if it plays like in the last one. One potential flaw in my plan, I'm not sure if that k3 stone changes the joseki here or not.

I don't know what joseki Daniel means, but I would have played hane here. Fuego spent 90% of playouts on this move, only 4% on the hane possibility, no other serious considerations. :b33: is definitely big, but I'm not sure if its worth letting white settle so easily. with plays like :b35: and :b39: , I think Fuego believes it is Takemiya :)

Bummer, I was hoping for the complicated thing that happens when black plays d3. Actually, this might be good for black, we'll see. I'm pretty sure I'm OK if black cuts at e3.

So this has happened a few times so far and this may not be the best example because a local response is sort of expected to a contact move. However, what causes Fuego to prune so heavily at the level of the first ply?

Several times white has played a move that Fuego predicted - for example move 18 and move 21, but although Fuego then played its planned response, it changed its prediction for the continuation. Why is this so?

Every time Fuego evaluates a position, it redoes the tree. As it goes deeper in the tree, it applies less time to each node*. As a result, sometimes a continuation looks right because Fuego hasn't evaluated it very carefully. But once the actual move is on the board, Fuego can accurately look a little further into the future. In that regard, it's quite like a person's reading.

* I think it changes its method--the move selection gets dumber/faster deeper in the tree, though I could be wrong about that.

@daal:
Basically what hyperpape said. As Fuego spends more time thinking about a position, additional playouts can cause other moves to appear better. Here's an explanation of search:
viewtopic.php?p=69830#p69830

@snorri:
I asked the same question to the Fuego development list, here's the response:
viewtopic.php?p=68939#p68939
One thing to keep in mind is that the developers are mostly interested in much shorter time limits, say 10 or 20 seconds per move. In that time frame, it's important for the search to narrow down quickly and make sure a move doesn't have a terrible consequence deeper in the tree.

If these don't make sense, ask me and I will try to explain in more depth.

Value: 50.8%, Fuego's optimism has been dropping steadily over the last few moves.

Sorry everyone, I accidentally deleted my notes with the sequence and moves chosen. The sequence looked something like this (from memory):

interesting play. The aji at :b35: was pretty big, but this feels a tad slow to me. Fuego really likes that thick, influence style though, so maybe it can find a way to make this work. One thing I've noticed in these games: Fuego tennukis more than I do :scratch:

Man, that is not a tenuki I would have made as black.

I think black has to push from behind or play on the 2nd line. I was going to play up one point, but I don't like this:

I can't take the stone on the edge and protect my cutting point at the same time.

No way Daniel will let Fuego off with that :b41: . I think Fuego may be in a tighter spot than it realizes...

I wanted to double hane but it doesn't seem to quite work.

I'm fairly happy with the situation. I think fuego gave up a large local advantage with that tenuki. I plan to push along the 4th line here for a bit. Then I have to decide if b2 is big enough (probably not, but it looks so huge). I also have to figure out: reduce/destroy, or solidify? I think I will have sente after the next few moves. Do I defend in the upper right? Destroy black's moyo in the center-right? destroy black's area at the top? I'm not sure yet.

Am I the only one who thinks the marked black stone was an excellent move?

Granted, white will build influence with the bottom left group, pushing black low. But the white wall will face a very strong black position. K3 and J8 do an excellent job reducing the influence. Black has not a single weak group, so what will white do with the wall?

Now compare this with white having cut. That way, white could chase a weak group. And that just has to be worth more than building a strong position that's already limited in scope... Especially since black then has a weak group, there is a bigger chance the influence in the bottom left will come to good use, even though it will be a bit weaker because of the missing tenuki.

I think there are a couple of problems locally with :b35:. First, it makes the R11 stone over-concentrated. If :b35: were played first, Black would not choose to extend to R11. At the very least, I think Black would prefer to hit White's shoulder at Q12. Second, imagine that White captures the single stone in the bottom right as below. Normally Black would like to use the hanging connection of :b2:. Here though :w3: has the threat to cut on either side of the P6 stone. If Black connects at "a" instead, the White hane at "b" becomes sente yose. :b35: clings too tightly to the R8 stone, which plays no strategic role in the game since the White corner is completely alive (Black would have to play both Q2 and S8 before T3 would threaten White's eye shape).

Fuego changed its mind again. From this sequence it almost seems that black wants to play on top as a kind of kikashi in sente before returning to the lower left. It did also consider this variation:

Does b6 kill that corner? I think it might. Must read.

Letting black have two moves up there is huge, but so is this corner. My stones on top are flexible still. I will be fine.

Plus:

Machine, you do NOT ignore my moves like that.

I don't really like black's choice, I think white will get too strong this way. I think white will block the other way, protecting the corner.

Moves like this should always make white feel good. I was thinking black would play Q18, which would give me more trouble, I think.

I like black taking the side in sente, but I think white can play at C7 instead and threaten the hane underneath, making a weaker shape for black.

When the move chosen gets less than 90% of playouts, I try to post the other moves considered:
