Koyou [2k\]: I missed the start, which of the games is most likely to be the most interesting?
USGO6 [-\]: Not sure if the results are posted yet...but expect a link may be provided in tomorrow's e-journal
USGO6 [-\]: I have no crystal ball for determining most interesting
hooloovoo [3k?\]: Sorry for the uninformed question: where is the e-journal?
Koyou [2k\]: hmm....well put
USGO6 [-\]: AGA memebrs get mailed the e-journal everyday

hooloovoo [3k?\]: Aha. Thanks for that information., both of you.
easyaspi [4k\]: free version does not have sgf files, members version does
Austin101 [2k\]: speaking of AGA, I need to renew that by October :o
USGO6 [-\]: Roll call of players in progress.... will be a few minutes before games start
easyaspi [4k\]: so masters div has two games per day?

USGO6 [-\]: yes...I think the top 40 players or so
USGO6 [-\]: Donfang Li is from China... he has joined the table.
USGO6 [-\]: Ryo Okada has sat down. He is from Japan.
USGO6 [-\]: Welcome to everyone. Enjoy the game!

dogbert [4d\]: just East or Oriental, perhaps
TTL [1d\]: Or maybe J14 or something like that, but looks a bit passive.
dogbert [4d\]: b has komi burden at this moment, I 
einstein [6d\]: B p6 looks normal locally, but we don't care about that.
einstein [6d\]: What about invading the top left or playing h15 ?
TTL [1d\]: P6 Q5 looks playable for W, I wouldn't be too fond of P6 for that reason.

]
;B[hi]C[einstein [6d\]: B defended the right side and W invaded at the top, the biggest potential territory at that moment
einstein [6d\]: c16 or so is important now
einstein [6d\]: maybe c15 
einstein [6d\]: I think W j17 was an overplay
einstein [6d\]: W should have extended into the center
USGO6 [-\]: We are on the 18th floor with a beautiful view of the Empire State Building

USGO6 [-\]: Round 2 of a 9 round tournament
hooloovoo [3k?\]: A question to the stronger players here: couldn't black attack the j17-group?
]
;W[np]
;B[nq]
;W[lq]C[TyTaLuS [1k\]: that seems like a good question
USGO6 [-\]: Now W has stood up and walked out of the room for a break
USGO6 [-\]: B has picked up a stone several times and then placed it back in his bowl
]
;B[ko]C[einstein [6d\]: Of course h11 was a ladder-breaker
USGO6 [-\]: W has returned
einstein [6d\]: if B can isolate o4, he will keep the initiative

Uberdude [3d\]: or perhaps an easier quesiton, os black about 19 years old chinese?
Uberdude [3d\]: and looks like this
Uberdude [3d\]: http://gosensations.com/?id=2&server_id=1&new_id=1374
Uberdude [3d\]: maybe not that stance until he wins
USGO6 [-\]: I would guess 19ish...but can't lookk at his pic now

einstein [6d\]: But B doesn't care about shape
einstein [6d\]: He just wants to attack o5 
einstein [6d\]: So locally B n8 is the right move shape-wise
USGO6 [-\]: Both players had been hunched over the board...now B is sitting back
Uberdude [3d\]: this one isn't totally sente
]
;W[ol]
;B[ok]
;W[ml]C[einstein [6d\]: what part of 'n8 is the right move shape-wise' didn't you understand?
einstein [6d\]: So W is saying: if B h4, he has an answer...
]
;B[hp]C[einstein [6d\]: So what is it?
einstein [6d\]: h5 obviously
einstein [6d\]: But that seems to be too bizarre
einstein [6d\]: if h5 h3 j2 h2 j3 and now what?
einstein [6d\]: j5 have a refreshing lack of liberties
einstein [6d\]: If W cannot cut at h5 - he is reading ot now - he has to submit at h2 - that is major pain
USGO6 [-\]: B has just under 60 minutes remaining

Nani [3d\]: w's territory is basically open from like every side on the bottom lol

USGO6 [-\]: :-)
einstein [6d\]: All those assumptions is what really worries me about this world we live in.

;B[dc]C[einstein [6d\]: d17 looks completely weird
einstein [6d\]: B's plan seems to be e17 d18 e18 b16 b15 c16 e15 b18 but that is far too good
einstein [6d\]: so... e17 d18 e18 b16 c17 that doesn't work for B
