Thanks, you too ![]() Let's be boring again. I wonder if he'll play the Chinese? |

I chose this opening to possibly open mini chinese (B) or at A for quick development. i saw a pro game a while back that played B then played A to quickly develop his framework and i think that was a brilliant idea. Let's wait and see what topezg does first:) |

I'm guessing orthodox. If he approaches me instead, I'm approaching him in the lower right - I want a fun game with lots of complexity. |

He probably wants me to approach so he can pincer, in that case my stone is less strong i think. he probably doesnt like playing against small chinese opening so i will do the other thing i have in mind. |

Boring boring. Apparently professionals play this more than the wedge, although that's with a lower right normal shimari, so I don't know if that makes a difference. Probably not at my level. |

her i can start a complex fight but topazg will probably go for the safe route and play the 2 space extention at A instead of 4 which gives me sente.
this looks better for white, black seems overconcentrated and has aji to take care of.
this doesnt feel right, black doesnt build a good wall from there and white will profit by playing around a and nullify the wall |

He's most likely to pincer, which means I get to live. Happy enough. |

Post subject: | Re: 130. stalkor vs topazg |
thoughts will post move later
im thinking of this variation, A being solid, while b escapes but topazg can play A and get a bigger wall.
this is the peaceful continuation. If topazg is really agressive he will play 4 at A but i dont think he would want to risk that.

I chose to attach at 9 because i like this variation, certainly with 2 black stones facing in the direction i'm going to "run"
I figured, playing the easy(passive) way doesn't HAVE to be sente, though i'm not sure this is the way to go for white since playing at A is just awful for white, but i have invested several moves in the corner then, so i bet white can make up for it. |

Blah, this one is awkward, I'll have to remember what I'm supposed to do here. It's a complicated sequence. As long as I can do something towards keeping Black low on the right, I'll be happy enough. |

It's a shame, I'd been looking forward to playing this:

I hope topazg plays Q14, instead of extended along top of his stones like a lot of people do around my rank. Or maybe S14. That'd also be interesting. |

Post subject: | Re: 130. stalkor vs topazg |
Continuing along the normal sequence. Black's now supposed to hane, and then I get to extend once before taking the corner. Something like this:
I guess we'll see. |
