Expected a move in that area, it was the other option for my last move too...

Initial thouhts: I think a move on fourth line would have been better for Ed, this seems easier to tenuki to A or something like it below. Will have to check response to black B below though first

Nah, seems better to protect here - if I try to build something at the bottom, black can play at 76 and then jump downwards...

One idea is just jump to :b1:, putting pressure on the :wc: stones --
that was one meaning of the :bt: connect -- :b75: is also preparation for the same thing:

Maybe the one-space jump is soft? Let's try this.

Ok, this reduces the middle and threatens to enlarge my top. Good enough? The slowing pace of moves seems to make the game harder for me to concentrate on :scratch:

I'm getting more and more angry at myself for letting Ed connect earlier - it renders my two lone stones in the middle quite irrelevant. Well something learned, I hope.

Obvious move is obvious.

If Ed continues locally, I will probably answer up to 84 below at least.

Point A at the bottom is very big - even bigger than similar points often are, IMHO. If Ed takes it, I'm currently toying with B, which seems possible at least on initial reading, and would seem to give me the lead. Hoever, I need to make sure to not lose the group of stones in the middle right if B is cut apart from the rest and lives separate close to the side.

EdLee, I don't want to rush, but could we perhaps aim for something like a move or two each week unless life interrupts too badly? The current pace with over week between moves makes it somehow harder to concentrate for me. If that's too fast, we can continue as it is. Sorry, could not know this beforehand as this is my first Malkovich game

Hi Tim, yes, sorry for the delay. Life did interrupt over here -- I'm in the middle of a huge multi-month
project that started even before October last year, and there's still maybe 2 or 3 months to go.
But I'll try to play faster! Thanks! :)

This time I spent some time looking for local alternatives, but they all seem to lead to bad results. In any case I don't want to tenuki and let black have too big side.


Ed: thanks for understanding, and don't worry about it too much, if you are busy with real life, then of course a game can wait.

I think I'm weakest at endgame, where we are now. Would really appreciate some feedback from here onwards from stonger players to read after the game. However, I think Ed's last move is not good:

1) a,b,c,d below would be likely sente points for black (this is what I expected)
2) My right side potential is smaller than my potential at bottom. D and F are similar moves, but D for Ed or E for me is better than F. F would be good if it threatened my eyespace on the side, but I do not see that.

I'm inclined to play E now, considering also G and whether I should try to turn marked area into points somehow. Around H is also nice, but seems smaller than the marked area at least, so not first priority.

Hope the diagram is not too cluttered :oops:

Ok, this seems bigger than B, and I'll keep the cut at A reserve in case black attacks my left side - don't see a way to turn that cut into good points right now.

If black tenukis my 86, below continuations seems good.
