think the analysis you have given in this game is among the best you've done. I'm really enjoying the ko discussion.



To magicwand:

Seconded. The commentary you've recently given regarding your games have been amongst the best. This is a huge difference from before. I am also enjoying this game because of it.

This ko is a fool's quest! The basic problem is white just has too many local threats; a problem I should have seen before. Unfortunately, I have wasted several of my own on a ko that's very hard for me to win. However, if white plans to just continue on with the game, I can wait for a time where I have more ko threats to continue the fight. If white just captures, then it's another free move for me. As for which move to take now, my main other consideration was the enclosure at f17. What can I say, I'm a sap for the sanrensei

before i closeout the ko i will play to see if i can make more ko threat.
ko makes the game very very very complicated for the beginners.
i think i have gained at least 10 points during this ko fight and i will try to gain more points off this.

This looks pretty bad for white, so he'll probably find a better way to threaten the lower group and make life.

if he answer my peep then this is one way street and 'a' i am alive and black group died.
if he doesnt answer my peep then i win the ko without ko fight.

my advice to SDKs:
when you play handycap game against someone strong it is inevitable that you make mistake and kill your group.
but if you can calm yourself and play correctly you still have chance to win.
if you play to makeup for your prior loss then you are sure to lose.
i think Jedo's move was exactly that. highway to loss.

I can't find any way for him to capture anything over there. Also, the nice thing about this move is that it destroys his local ko threats. He still has two I can't ignore, so I'll have to keep my eye on threats I can use

For obs:
Assuming Magicwand is right about killing, shouldn't Black restart the ko and use the upper white group's need to live as a source of threats? Would this work/is it a good idea?
