I thought we had agreed that I get the right corners, Kirby? Symmetry would look so nice, please!!
I think this could go for my playing style - what was your intention for playing there? It looked nice.

I rejected my first more aggressive idea: "You go playing under my stones, I play under yours" (Kirby, thoughts on that one? Reaction?):

or direct block/shoulder hit (is it?)

I would have expected something like this : give White the corner and get the outside.

In any case, :b46:

at S5 is clearly wrong since it invites White to cross Black's keima.

White wins by resignation.

As I've written in my PM, thank you very much, Kirby, for giving me this opportunity. I really appreciate it.

Thanks, Jika. I just realized you posted on January 1st - somehow, I missed that (maybe I was doing New Years' stuff).

In any case, thanks for playing this game. Malkovich games last awhile, and I understand that life can get busy - I'm getting pretty busy myself these days, and I'll have to figure out where go fits into my life after mid-March.

Handicap games are tough, but I enjoyed playing, nonetheless. I think you've made a lot of progress since joining the forums here. And there were some moves you played, which were pretty hard to answer.

Cheers!
