no problem, enjoy the conference (i hope it is enjoyable)

so far so good. now i want to see how will black answer my last move, because allowing me monkey jump would be pretty big, but it is hard to find a good counter (w a is going to become unpleasant aji)

a = 35
b = 12
c = 5
d = 8
e = 7
f = 18
g = 15
h = 20
i = 3
ballance = a + b + c + d - e - f - g - h - i = 35 + 12 + 5 + 8 - 7 - 18 - 15 - 20 - 3 = -3
hmm, i would think i am already ahead, but i believe i can get 3 points in the endgame. this count isn't really precise anyway, because i am used to not so close games so i usually round the numbers a bit.
but i feel good, that's important
