Sankei Cup
Back in November, Andy Liu won through the Sankei prelims. This eurogo report says that the main tournament will be held in the Spring: http://www.eurogofed.org/?id=20. What is the date for the main tournament? Here is a Japanese page for the prelims, but Google Translate is not quite enough for me to find the main tournament: http://kansaikiin.jp/events/proama12.html

Re: Sankei Cup
Thanks, uber. Interesting game to see.
White already seemed behind at move 33.
White 56 was very interesting. I'd have never found that move.
For the rest of the game, it felt like Andy was just desperately trying to create complications, but his 8p opponent never flinched.

Re: Sankei Cup
Yeah, I don't really understand Andy Liu's gameplan here. He played that unusual wider extension on the top, and then got the o18 descent in sente which kind of help fixes the weakness but not really, and Murukawa immediately exploits (punishes?) this with k17. Did he anticipate this? Seems good for black to me, particularly as he didn't probe in the top left corner before the e3 tenuki (if you can exchange c17 for d16 that's obviously good as black would answer differently once he gets the thickness on top side, and even c17 for c16 might be a good exchange; I would expect those kind of subtleties at the pro level). And then I can't understand why he didn't play the j15 atari, surely that's a good exchange if black answers; did he really fear black would tenuki? I would worry about black tenuki of m18 so I wouldn't push my luck with that one after.
