Koons [1k\]: what is this consistent amashi you speak of?
Mukti [4d\]: J17 feels rather heavy though...
Mukti [4d\]: It mean he has been patientlt playing the big points, letting b do as he likes but following on his heels.
pokale [2d?\]: why are they playing so slow?
Herod [-\]: This is rather quick for serious tournament game
Mukti [4d\]: J17 at M15 would feel lighter to me...now w feels in trouble.

JackEL [2d\]: M9 area is about to be all blacks
Muttley [2k\]: harsh man, harsh

odbira [3k\]: don't forget the masseuses!
Surrounded [1k\]: w is in big trouble
USGO1 [-\]: I'm not saying any of the players are hungry, just letting you know
jlm [1d\]: y, that fact was established as soon as he sat down to play mr. lee
will122166 [1d\]: they're hungry alright. Hungry for the grand prize.
USGO1 [-\]: yes, there are masseuses, though they haven't made it into the top-board room yet

will122166 [1d\]: im happy for him. Hope he wins this tournament.
YesChoboco [-\]: over?
Larcon [1d\]: almost 
morko [3k\]: seems like the c5 - d5 exchange wasn't very good for white. if w had played e5 first, and b responded at d5, then surely w would not play c5 (but perhaps f3)
Larcon [1d\]: W looks have no hope.
Surrounded [1k\]: he hasn't
YesChoboco [-\]: g9 the only
chiron [?\]: w will win

gogonuts [5d\]: lol, surrounded
GoNovice [16k?\]: what do you mean with "captain trap"
