Today I played a game against my friend FB [W] 2D EGF.


The 4-5 point is not a viable fuseki option anymore. The early 3-3 invasion is just too good.

Black should not connect.

Now Black had several options. I went for my favourite low approach to the 3-4 stone.

The game was even again after black had played some slack moves in the upper left.

But the next two white moves were suboptimal also.

Blacks next move is sharp if not answered correctly. White should have just played L4.

After two more cuts it is time for my obligatory near fatal tactical mistake.
