Change your move if you wish.

OK, so my attack is a little bit loose, but if I put the pressure on him in this way, I should be able to strengthen my group and possibly make some territory this way.

I guess he will probably play O17 next.

I am thinking O18 or O17 at a glance, but I'll look into it more. This looks a bit risky for him, imo.

I'm then weak at "a" and "b", above.

However, I think the move I played in the game might work out.

Hmm, I didn't expect that move - at least not at this moment. I will have to think about it for a little bit.

To observers:
What is there to think about? With O17, you chose to go for the kill. ( A decision that I agree with, BTW ) The only consistent continuation is :b1: below:

I don't know if it works, but it must be played. Anything else would lead the observers to think that you are waffling.

Basically, Kirby has to just stay on his toes and refuse to needlessly compromise.

He has a huge advantage, and he should be mindful of that, as long as it doesn't detract from his willingness to fight.

Basically, he should be like this:

I hope we get to see Kirby sipping tea leisurely atop his Charizard in this game quite soon.

But with Magicwand's last move, it looks like my "instinctive" reply can lead to something that foils :b8: in the diagram above. For example:

If I try this, though, I think that it is not so much of a threat...

WIth a sequence like above, I think I should be OK, particularly since "a" (above) is not sente…

Let's see what he comes up with.

Hmmm, looks like magicwand has the choice of living. It is harder for Black to be severe now:

(Yes, I realise :b88: is a silly move - it's more to highlight that the purpose I think Kirby had in mind will be hard to see through I think)

Sometimes it is difficult for me to be patient. For these forum games, especially, I want to see what happens quickly... But I have to wait.

I guess it isn't much better with online games, either. The pace is faster, but sometimes I am not patient when I really should sit down and read something out.

I wonder what I can do to increase my patience... I wonder how I can make myself read when I want to play quickly.

I guess the good thing is, in this case at least, I am forced to play slowly (relatively speaking, at least :-)).

Sometimes I also feel that the smiley face icon looks a bit sarcastic. I did not mean sarcasm in my last post. But that face is staring at me with some sort of yellow-faced sarcasm, like it is taunting me... :-) :-) :-)

I think it's gotta be those eyebrows...

This is why I use the :D for this forum, and only this forum. It looks how the :) should be intended.

I guess I might still get cut this way... But locally, this move is too good to pass up.

If he cuts me, I will fight back.
