Forced.

This move removes a lot of aji on my right. I think W is making a mistake.

Followup:

The reason I chose against changing that move, as with the majority of my reading in the previous post, is because some of it is just so complicated to read, and I want to minimise the number of changes I have to make. Most of the moves White was playing to squeeze out are ataris, so MHO will have obvious approved moves, and if I lose 3 or 4 alterations on any of those lines we are probably in trouble.

Once again, the only move that still leaves the black group separated.
I'm just not sure what will happen with the top white group. I don't see a good way to live with it, nor a good way to sacrifice it.

No point in separating two groups that are alive because they killed ours. This move seems to be the only way to create enough aji, am thinking White should have not ataried from that side after all

This looks amazing for B. I don't need to kill, if I can make W live sealed or connect my group out in a thick manner and while retaining sente thats a bargain.

Still, this loks better for black.

...which means that the cut at 3 is probably not good for white. So...


I approve.

The more I read, the more I should have changed that last one I wanted to. I can see myself changing a bunch more moves now anyway, so it's not like this has helped :P

Honestly, rengo is soo much more easy than this, you double and triple think yourself and your partner all the time here.

I'm not sure what topazg has in mind, but this move seems to be basic instinct. Hope it is. :/

I'm going to have to bail out of this game for a while, I've just had a pretty major family life crisis and want to clear my plate out for a while :(

Sorry guys, hope you can pick up a suitable replacement!

Sorry to hear that topazg, we enjoyed playing with you, and wish you all the best in your life!

Whoever replaces topazg surely cannot approve this. Phelan feels like he is just sleep walking through the game.

I can fill in for Topazg here, too, if you guys want me to.

If you agree then open the below...

I do not approve.
