While replaying games on gokifu.com I came across an amazing game... Simply incredible.

Words cannot describe how I felt when replaying this game. The play of Lee amazed me, and the sequence he used to end the game was beyond imagination!
His play kind of remind me of Lee changho. Especially move 14.

Hi!
Are the sources you mention the only ones you used so far in studying go?
If not can you make an approximate chronological list of material used(books, exercises, how much you played)?
Thank you!

Hi OV!

Thanks for posting them games. It was really interesting to look at the Lee Jihyun game in light of the "Ten Golden Rules", which I've been studying recently. So many examples of "defending before attacking" and "playing away from where you want to attack". For instance, White's f5 is exactly the kind of move that looks so slow, but is also so full of power.

The ending was very pretty, but it seemed White was dominating the endgame anyway. I was just thinking that this game is a great example of how to use an attack to win, without necessarily killing anything...but then the kill came anyway.
