USGO1 [-\]: Even though its already past time to start, not all the players are present yet
USGO1 [-\]: The players bow, and start their clock
]RE[W+Resign]
;B[pd]C[McMaster [-\]: thx USGO1, who is leading in this tourny so far?
]
;W[dd]C[play234 [-\]: Yulin is, with 7-1. 3 other players with 6-2, black is one of them
Baobab [2d\]: here the results 
Baobab [2d\]: http://www.usgo.org/tournaments/crosstab/band-matrix/173
McMaster [-\]: thanks
USGO1 [-\]: For results, pairings and game records, see the crosstabs section of the AGA website: http://www.usgo.org/tournaments/crosstab/band-matrix/173
]
;B[pq]C[USGO1 [-\]: ah, you guys type faster than me... I have to pay attention to the board
rsun [4d\]: w's next move will be critical
rsun [4d\]: it decides the flow of the game
Reym [-\]: will they the same opening again?
Reym [-\]: do
]
;W[dp]C[USGO1 [-\]: Video streaming and pro commentary will be available on the AGA's new Youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/usgoweb
McMaster [-\]: yes Dennis, you are busy  ^^
rsun [4d\]: b has a few options, f3 r9 r8 
Baobab [2d\]: egc or usgc : a chinese pro crush everybody anyway :)
rsun [4d\]: or r5 for renaissance
cekalo [1k\]: may the better player win
USGO1 [-\]: It just helps us see how much further we need to go to compete internationally
rsun [4d\]: anything else would be considered shuko
]
;B[fq]
;W[cn]
;B[ql]C[Reym [-\]: yes it gives us a good aim
rsun [4d\]: now w can j4 or o17
therustle [2k\]: rsun, keep in mind that they might invent something new ^^
Baobab [2d\]: yeah we can see it like this ^^ i didn't complain btw
rsun [4d\]: yes, that would be shuko
]
;W[jp]
;B[dr]C[therustle [2k\]: oh, i thought it meant weird or something XD
rsun [4d\]: r8 micro; r7 nano; r6 pico; r5 femto
rsun [4d\]: r5 would've been the femto chinese opening
]
;W[gq]C[SzemingLi [1d\]: what would r sun be?
therustle [2k\]: femto is 10^-?
Baobab [2d\]: maybe the power of the fuseki decrease by 10^-3 each time, rsun
rsun [4d\]: micro -6 nano -9 pico -12 femto -15
therustle [2k\]: thx ^^
]
;B[gp]C[Muttley [3k\]: femto is basically how long a 9d takes to consider our moves
]
;W[fr]C[rsun [4d\]: d2 is not recommended
rsun [4d\]: as you can see b is fighting against giants
Muttley [3k\]: where is b going with this?
rsun [4d\]: and he is not david, but zexiang
emre0635 [7k\]: but d2 is very famous?
]
;B[do]C[wolokom [5k\]: oh
Muttley [3k\]: b has a plan
SzemingLi [1d\]: b plays like he things he is up against a kyu player
therustle [2k\]: emre, it is not recomended after most or all pincers
rsun [4d\]: d2 without k4 is ok
Herod [-\]: Please respect the players and the game if you wish to continue watching
rsun [4d\]: I respect them very much
emre0635 [7k\]: ok what u frefer instead of d2?
emre0635 [7k\]: f5?
Muttley [3k\]: actually, SzemingLi, d5 is a kikashi used to negate lines in this joseki
rsun [4d\]: m3 normal
therustle [2k\]: usually either go out, in the corner or change direction
]
;W[fp]
;B[cp]C[emre0635 [7k\]: ok tnx
therustle [2k\]: it seems this was some sort of direction change?
]
;W[eq]
;B[dq]C[Muttley [3k\]: but I don't know with k4
rsun [4d\]: this exchange is good for w
rsun [4d\]: b is contained within
TTL [1d\]: Why? It looks really good for B to me.
Baobab [2d\]: ponnuki --> game over
play234 [-\]: sound but no video on stream?
TTL [1d\]: c6 is severely hurt and k4 is overconcentrated now, W started with 3 stones there. Superb for B IMO.
therustle [2k\]: nah, a ponnuki on 3rd line isnt that bad
Baobab [2d\]: maybe c9 now for w ?
]
;W[dn]C[rsun [4d\]: g4 is hurt even worse
Muttley [3k\]: TTL, how does b develop?
rsun [4d\]: w influence erases chinese opening potential
rsun [4d\]: it is a matter of consistency
therustle [2k\]: i guess if he could get out and pincer white it would be allright
McMaster [-\]: W is good, like rsun said B is contained inside 
redreoicy [3d\]: would expect it to be good for w, capturing f3 broke black's shape more than c4 did
therustle [2k\]: maybe even directly pincer and treat e4 and c5 miai?
rsun [4d\]: b corner is less than 10 points
redreoicy [3d\]: (to white)
Baobab [2d\]: if b take sente it's not that bad for him
redreoicy [3d\]: it's bad for black period
Civix1320 [6k\]: ^
TTL [1d\]: I don't really get the argument; K4 would limit B's potential anyway, so the bottom side wasn't that interesting for either player.
rsun [4d\]: but now w is thick
redreoicy [3d\]: the difference between a completely solid k4
redreoicy [3d\]: and a weak running k4
redreoicy [3d\]: is huge
Ana1ysis [1k\]: surely e5 is the only move?
therustle [2k\]: yes but if black manages to get a move at d9+- in sente from it, wouldnt that be allright?
cizu: but 4k is 4k
Muttley [3k\]: cough like a pro
dao108 [3d\]: This seems still fairly even to me, depends mostly who gets sente
rsun [4d\]: d9 is too close
redreoicy [3d\]: black might get sente but he will be completely sealed
]
;B[eo]
;W[go]C[redreoicy [3d\]: you can compare it to the 3-3 invasion of 4-4 point and the seal is much better than in that case but as i'm speaking hum
Muttley [3k\]: same question: how does b develop from here?   w has easy development, b doesn't
redreoicy [3d\]: i misread some things but still bad for white
dao108 [3d\]: G5 still had aji and that makes K4 both overconcentrated and illbalanced
redreoicy [3d\]: black*
]
;B[co]C[dao108 [3d\]: it's different than normal 3-3 invasion because w starts with an extra move . Seems still balanced
Ana1ysis [1k\]: c5 seems slow
redreoicy [3d\]: white didn't start with an extra move
dao108 [3d\]: If you compare to attach variation instead of 3-3 invasion, it's similar
Muttley [3k\]: if b doesn't c5, w does, force the capture and bad shape for b
redreoicy [3d\]: or wait he did
rsun [4d\]: usually you want to leave f3 alone when w k4
rsun [4d\]: if you run out, you get a string of dame
Ana1ysis [1k\]: now does white just extend along the left side?
rsun [4d\]: so does w, but w's wall radiates toward the right, which is valuable
dogbert [3d\]: e6 or f7
rsun [4d\]: and w cannot swallow f3 with an extra move, which is why you can tenuki
redreoicy [3d\]: if those are my choices i choose e6
rsun [4d\]: e7 may be better shape
redreoicy [3d\]: maybe
Muttley [3k\]: well, b got his wish of taking w out of his known fuseki
therustle [2k\]: still can aim at the cut later right?
kamaran [2d\]: e7 looks ugly
Muttley [3k\]: good or bad, that's a plus
McMaster [-\]: i think e5 is slow too, whats a better move, rsun?
]
;W[dj]C[redreoicy [3d\]: e5 was only move 
rsun [4d\]: now b has 2 options, o17 or f17
Ana1ysis [1k\]: agreed, but was c5 needed?
Muttley [3k\]: yes ....
dao108 [3d\]: C5 was necessary
redreoicy [3d\]: if b doesn't c5 alternatives end with kosumi to the center
dao108 [3d\]: or b gets squeezed
redreoicy [3d\]: which black thought was slow
rsun [4d\]: o17 is more like moyo vs moyo, but w has better thickness
redreoicy [3d\]: or tenuki and get squeezed which is also not good
rsun [4d\]: f17 will be pincered
Ana1ysis [1k\]: but isn't c5 slower than the kosumi?
kamaran [2d\]: b may also want to capitalize more on w's awkward d6 shape
Ana1ysis [1k\]: i mean, it looks like a kosumi is still the only option
rsun [4d\]: now that b's corner is alive, w d6 stones are light
dao108 [3d\]: B could also just approach from insde as well 
rsun [4d\]: w can give them up
dao108 [3d\]: C14 because of the C6 shape
kamaran [2d\]: i;m not saying b should try to eat them
Muttley [3k\]: clearly b should play c14 here out of consistency
rsun [4d\]: but if you do sth like e6 or d8 w will not respond locally
kamaran [2d\]: naturally
rsun [4d\]: the top side is the biggest area now, that is obvious
redreoicy [3d\]: maybe would respond to d8 but black gets gote 
kamaran [2d\]: if b passes, w will also play somewhere and not pass
therustle [2k\]: how about a move around j17?
redreoicy [3d\]: maybe play will just o17
therustle [2k\]: seems more active than o17, but wont get pincered
rsun [4d\]: o17 is holding back your fist before punching out
rsun [4d\]: it's an important concept
therustle [2k\]: i see
TTL [1d\]: Telegraphing is good in go? :P
therustle [2k\]: but then, later if that are is open, black will either have a low to low relationship or an high open skirt :/
therustle [2k\]: area*
therustle [2k\]: what about o16, m17, k17?
therustle [2k\]: is that playable as black?
USGO1 [-\]: the last day of the congress week, everyone is tired... I think the players went back to their rooms to take a nap
]
;B[nc]C[rsun [4d\]: usually you don't want to play o16 facing opponent's corner
redreoicy [3d\]: o17 :)
rsun [4d\]: now takemiya would k16 with no doubt
rsun [4d\]: but w may s15 here
rsun [4d\]: w may f17 himself as well, but s15 is more common
Uberdude [4d?\]: i predict f17
McMaster [-\]: interesting info on other notes, Dennis   ^^
Uberdude [4d?\]: becauase r8 is far
]
;W[fc]C[Uberdude [4d?\]: b's moves on right are less good
rsun [4d\]: now n4 is attractive
kamaran [2d\]: that's called 'worse'
rsun [4d\]: top side is not as interesting now
]
;B[qe]C[Uberdude [4d?\]: less good and worse aren't synonyms
kamaran [2d\]: to everyone but you perhaps
Uberdude [4d?\]: to everyone with a good grasp of the english language
rsun [4d\]: n3 or k16?
kamaran [2d\]: which would exclude you, i see
Excalibor [7k?\]: too soon for q9?
Uberdude [4d?\]: demonstrably not
rsun [4d\]: q9 is not recommended
Excalibor [7k?\]: or even q10/p9?
Herod [-\]: if you wish to quarrel, do it somewhere besides the game kibitz please
rsun [4d\]: it consolidates b bottom right
Excalibor [7k?\]: rsun: ah, i see
rsun [4d\]: q9 q8 p9 o9 for instance
]
;W[mp]C[rsun [4d\]: b q5 or p4 is a must now
Excalibor [7k?\]: nod
Uberdude [4d?\]: i hope black plays o4
Excalibor [7k?\]: o4? seems a bit too agressive
rsun [4d\]: with q5 b can slide n2 in yose
therustle [2k\]: o4? is the idea getting strong and making white overconsentraded?
Uberdude [4d?\]: rin kaiho famously played it when his chinese was approached at n4 with k4 already there
Uberdude [4d?\]: yes therustle
rsun [4d\]: o4 also good
Uberdude [4d?\]: the chinese sequence is o4 o5 p4 n5 q6 
rsun [4d\]: in any case, w gets sente
Uberdude [4d?\]: if r8 is at r9 thats perfect
therustle [2k\]: excalibor, usually attaching is defensive not agresive
Uberdude [4d?\]: and the point is k4 ends up too close
Excalibor [7k?\]: ok, w gets a bit overconcentrated but also gets solid points on the bottom and r8 is still on its onw...
]
;B[po]C[rsun [4d\]: b prefers to slide n2 later
Uberdude [4d?\]: bottom is already solid with those ponnukis though
Vash3G [-\]: Guys you can watch the live video on YouTube @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey1trTNNXEk
]
;W[ce]C[Uberdude [4d?\]: because r8 isn't at r9 b is more seceure than in the normal chinese if he answers at q5
Ana1ysis [1k\]: white better here
rsun [4d\]: k16 is the last big spot
rsun [4d\]: which will mark the end of fuseki
Excalibor [7k?\]: therustle: attaching makes the opponent stronger... it looks b doesn't need w to be stronger, and that shoulder hit is tough
]
;B[jd]C[rsun [4d\]: next move is the beginning of middle game
Civix1320 [6k\]: white going to come in on the right?
therustle [2k\]: well, excalibor, usually when your oponent is strong is a great oportunity to make him stronger ^^
Uberdude [4d?\]: black played in EGC last year?
rsun [4d\]: w may play some light move in the center
Excalibor [7k?\]: thesustle: lol... i see your point... not my style, but you got an interesting idea over there... thx!
rsun [4d\]: such as L11
Ana1ysis [1k\]: p8?
Argus [-\]: R3?
rsun [4d\]: p8 is not recommended
Ana1ysis [1k\]: why?
therustle [2k\]: rsun, can you explain why?
Excalibor [7k?\]: r9 and r14 and reduce all the moyos :-D
therustle [2k\]: im horrible at reductions ^^
Ana1ysis [1k\]: i guess p8 q10?
FryMe [3k\]: why?
rsun [4d\]: p8 p9 perhaps, I don't know
Excalibor [7k?\]: b p8 w q10 and all the right side is black's
]
;W[pk]C[Ana1ysis [1k\]: i guess i was close with p8
Ana1ysis [1k\]: right idea, wrong move
therustle [2k\]: q8?
Uberdude [4d?\]: yeah black played in egc 2014, beat all europeans and kim youngsam and oh chi min
therustle [2k\]: p9, r10 or something?
Excalibor [7k?\]: uber: really?
Uberdude [4d?\]: only lost to chen wang and tong yulin twice
FryMe [3k\]: q8
USGO1 [-\]: @uber... it was white
Uberdude [4d?\]: they both did
Uberdude [4d?\]: i remember tong yulin did, he won it
Uberdude [4d?\]: i think all these cihnese are from shanghai and know each other?
Excalibor [7k?\]: they are all so young... oh, humpfr...
rsun [4d\]: normally b has 3 options only q8 r9 o9 
therustle [2k\]: rsun, what would you do against an unconventional move like q7 here?
FryMe [3k\]: r9 is terrible here
rsun [4d\]: q7 q8
Excalibor [7k?\]: r9 is cool
rsun [4d\]: top right >> bottom right
Excalibor [7k?\]: lee sedol style
rsun [4d\]: always look which side is bigger, then you can decide easily
therustle [2k\]: i think i want to try q11 here
FryMe [3k\]: getting pushed to second like and being recuced exactly the way white wants to is sedol style?
Uberdude [4d?\]: q9 is why i wasn't sure of b k16
Excalibor [7k?\]: mmm maybe it's lee changho style... he did win in the end anyway :-)
Uberdude [4d?\]: but then i don't know what else to play
rsun [4d\]: that shows the power of pros, they can always make your position look awkward
]
;B[qk]
;W[pj]C[Achiles [?\]: Q8 so good
rsun [4d\]: now b can only q8
]
;B[pl]
;W[nk]
;B[ol]C[rsun [4d\]: n11 normal
]
;W[mi]C[therustle [2k\]: should black add a move?
rsun [4d\]: now it is not clear where b should play
Excalibor [7k?\]: wow
FryMe [3k\]: I don't like it for b, but what do I know
Achiles [?\]: H16?
rsun [4d\]: one way is to probe at c17 first
therustle [2k\]: black should be aware of the midle area that is starting to form
Excalibor [7k?\]: b needs to press on g15 or press w over the upper left abd keep it low... then b has 3 corners and w has 1
therustle [2k\]: if white gets f6 and o8
FryMe [3k\]: white does have a framework now
McMaster [-\]: rsun, should bn7 or m5 before w makes a big center moyo?
FryMe [3k\]: maybe use the hole at F6
rsun [4d\]: m5 looks strange
]
;B[dl]C[yukinosita [4d\]: White showing Beat 7d is easy mode !?
McMaster [-\]: k   thx
rsun [4d\]: I think n7 is small for now
Excalibor [7k?\]: ah, reduction in sente via attack...
rsun [4d\]: because the 5-unit radius about h11 seems bigger
therustle [2k\]: white can just ignore
Excalibor [7k?\]: eveb g11... heck, shoulder ht all the things... :-)
rsun [4d\]: also you can think this way, w will not spend a move to seal n7
rsun [4d\]: because it has no follow up
]
;W[cl]C[rsun [4d\]: so therefore b should not hurry to play there
McMaster [-\]: k  thx
]
;B[cc]C[Excalibor [7k?\]: both players are hovering over the baord... some complex reading is in place
Excalibor [7k?\]: whoah, tenuki!
rsun [4d\]: I think b should probe before doing anything on the left
FryMe [3k\]: there is your probe
rsun [4d\]: yes
Vash3G [-\]: FYI, Kim Myungwan 9p glanced at the lower left corner and went to get Cho Hyeyeon 9p to talk about it
Excalibor [7k?\]: weird as that sansan does not work... big ko incoming?
rsun [4d\]: because d8 c8 limits the possibility for b c12 invasion now
Vash3G [-\]: the two are having a very animated discussion about it here in the video room
FryMe [3k\]: will cho sensei comment?
woochie59 [6k\]: the other one
Vash3G [-\]: Kim Myungwan will be commenting
therustle [2k\]: excalibor, depending on whites response, black might get sente moves outside
rsun [4d\]: in fact w may tenuki now
Excalibor [7k?\]: Vash: oh... when, right now or at the beginning?
]
;W[be]C[therustle [2k\]: right now
flobby [-\]: someone said in a livestream earlier i think there might be a cho hyeyeon vs tong yulin game... is that still possible?
Excalibor [7k?\]: therustle: i see... so it's just for the aji?
FryMe [3k\]: cho said she would challange yulin
Pettyx2 [3k\]: vash is there gonna be streamed commentary?
therustle [2k\]: jup, he wants to know how white responds so that he can read what happens and what aji there is
Excalibor [7k?\]: b15 looks very solid and calm
]
;B[hc]C[Excalibor [7k?\]: i see... thx for the tip :)
rsun [4d\]: b has only 2 local moves, b15 or d17
rsun [4d\]: w*
]
;W[bo]C[rsun [4d\]: h17 aims at f18 yose, but it is only yose
therustle [2k\]: e18 is nothing?
rsun [4d\]: if w d17, b may sabaki easily at c12
Vash3G [-\]: Currently yes, there will be a Tong Yulin vs Cho Hyeyeon match set for 2:30 pm central
rsun [4d\]: nth at e18
Excalibor [7k?\]: it also closes the skirt at j18, doesn't it?
flobby [-\]: today?
Vash3G [-\]: To-day
USGO1 [-\]: 4 1/2 hours from now
flobby [-\]: thanks vash. will we get to see a livestream or is it only for the players at the congress?
rsun [4d\]: after b18 w a17 is kill
]
;B[bp]C[therustle [2k\]: ah thx rsun
Uberdude [4d?\]: hmmm interesting match up vash3g
Uberdude [4d?\]: do they have decent time limits for that?
rsun [4d\]: there is f16 aji though, but b needs to be thicker outside
Excalibor [7k?\]: mmm... b b4 looks good but so slow...
Uberdude [4d?\]: i hope cho can make tsumego as pretty as in her books
therustle [2k\]: excalibor, neccecary for life
redreoicy [3d\]: if you don't play b4 then you might die later
flobby [-\]: well, b doesn't want to die here, excalibor
FryMe [3k\]: when will the commentary begin?
rsun [4d\]: about time
rsun [4d\]: I will stop when the real commentary begins ;)
Excalibor [7k?\]: but b has e4 gote eye and sente moves at e2 and the aji of g4 to live if needed
TTL [1d\]: Who's commenting, and is it KGS+ only?
FryMe [3k\]: no it's youtube
FryMe [3k\]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey1trTNNXEk
Jermelle [-\]: It's youtube+ sadly
therustle [2k\]: english comentary?
rsun [4d\]: yes
FryMe [3k\]: yes
rsun [4d\]: zen will do sth like h12 now
USGO1 [-\]: there will be a kgs commentary too... but probably for board 2, not board 1
Excalibor [7k?\]: after b4 b e4 and b2 are miai for easy life, but... it still feels slow :-P :-)
rsun [4d\]: b has to b4 to live locally
Jermelle [-\]: it's a shame mark lee doesn't own board 1 anymore
FryMe [3k\]: I don't think they will continue playing that corner
rsun [4d\]: b cannot afford being chased out
]
;W[hd]C[Uberdude [4d?\]: maybe w h16?
Excalibor [7k?\]: oh, i see
Uberdude [4d?\]: oh dam too slow
Excalibor [7k?\]: lol
Excalibor [7k?\]: nice catch, uber
therustle [2k\]: how come youtube is updated later than kgs?
Uberdude [4d?\]: fixing the f16 cut with the e18 thing
rsun [4d\]: j17 is the normal response, but then b will lose
FryMe [3k\]: it makes sense, if black comes out there it will attack white in the center while reducing his framework
Excalibor [7k?\]: so b has to g16???
rsun [4d\]: g16 looks like overplay
Excalibor [7k?\]: j16
Excalibor [7k?\]: h15
rsun [4d\]: maybe b has to tenuki now
Excalibor [7k?\]: really?
Excalibor [7k?\]: where to?
therustle [2k\]: when in doubt tenuki ^^
rsun [4d\]: somewhere in the center?
Uberdude [4d?\]: something extravagant like f18?
FryMe [3k\]: yeah b can't answer there right now
rsun [4d\]: when you see a center that's even bigger than zen's, you should be concerned
Uberdude [4d?\]: or  n9
Excalibor [7k?\]: e6
therustle [2k\]: doesnt black have an answer that activates c17?
Uberdude [4d?\]: but b has no ladders
FryMe [3k\]: my3k instincts tell me to play F7
Excalibor [7k?\]: keima?
flobby [-\]: rsugn/uberdude, what's the best way to block b f6?
FryMe [3k\]: why yes
Uberdude [4d?\]: f7 is flabby, you wanna take e8 liberty there
Excalibor [7k?\]: mmm a weak group there might be dangerous
rsun [4d\]: if b f6, w can tenuki
FryMe [3k\]: no one said it's gonna be easy :P
rsun [4d\]: you can think of it as dame move
USGO1 [-\]: Yulin checks his opponent's time and throws him a quick glance. Zexiang glances back briefly and resumes studying the board
Excalibor [7k?\]: e6 e7 f7 e8 g6 and b is in the center
FryMe [3k\]: what about H15
flobby [-\]: so what you're saying, rsun, is that w is just aiming for left and bottom, NOT center?
rsun [4d\]: the proverb says that if you don't have a good move locally, tenuki
Excalibor [7k?\]: h15 looks like trading center for upper side
Achiles [?\]: J16
rsun [4d\]: the center is big, if b comes out through f6, w can work on f12 area
rsun [4d\]: f6 is too narrow
FryMe [3k\]: that's why I suggested a keima, and then deal with the fighting
Excalibor [7k?\]: e6 better, threatens left and center
flobby [-\]: ok lets say the rest of the board is closed off
flobby [-\]: and this the last reduction
Excalibor [7k?\]: b has b6 as sente
therustle [2k\]: how about g16, sac h17 and get the outside?
flobby [-\]: what would be the best move to seal in f6?
therustle [2k\]: b6 not sente ^^

;B[fi]C[McMaster [-\]: Hm, Now B fights in the center!
oChayo [1k\]: k14
hoyuka [1d\]: too deep
oChayo [1k\]: yea i think so too
Excalibor [7k?\]: f11... i thought e11 before the upper exchange, now b has to be a bit more cautious...
Excalibor [7k?\]: f11 is using the d8 aji, I think... n11 is still quite far away
hoyuka [1d\]: H 11

rsun [4d\]: yes
rsun [4d\]: and 20 bottom
hapci: bu itc bs turn
Achiles [?\]: With komi it is within 3-4 points so it's wide open
flobby [-\]: but rsun, according to cho hyeyeon w is nervous about now
Zalasha [1d\]: yeah i evaluate not count but i think w ahead by komi too

;B[lg]C[flobby [-\]: omg wow m13!
MrMatou [3k\]: that quite hunger
flobby [-\]: cho hyeyeon and kim myungwan said that after b lived on the left and top left without much damage to himself, it was too good for b
rsun [4d\]: I think b reduced w's lead, so w got more nervous compared to say 30 moves ago
]
;W[mg]C[rsun [4d\]: but imo w is still leading
Achiles [?\]: Sry was typing you already had count
flobby [-\]: the commentary when white k14 was specifically
flyalot [1k\]: w+56.6

flobby [-\]: and said why w didn't play a stronger move
flyalot [1k\]: flobby, is it from youtube ?
flobby [-\]: yes
flobby [-\]: i mean why w e8 and not a13
flyalot [1k\]: hmm
Zalasha [1d\]: because impossible to kill?
Zalasha [1d\]: isnt it pretty simple heh

emre0635 [7k\]: w drinking redbull now

hoyuka [1d\]: for reading?

;W[og]C[Zalasha [1d\]: do they have tea too?
flobby [-\]: yes they have tea
flobby [-\]: what I don't understand is why all the tournament clocks give warnings in chinese
Reckless1 [3d\]: that's annoying
hoyuka [1d\]: made in china
Cool [1k\]: на сколько интересен разбор профиков, и почему то жутко мало вариантов там
hoyuka [1d\]: What language is that?
flyalot [1k\]: hebrew
hoyuka [1d\]: cool
Cool [1k\]: РОССИЯ
flyalot [1k\]: i wish i can learnt, but it's hard to learn
TheThe [4k\]: klingon
rsun [4d\]: they want you to know how to count 1-10 in chinese
Ikra [3k\]: трансяляция этой партии есть ?
Cool [1k\]: вчера смотрели разбор с вторжением в угол, и то намного весеелее было чем в игре
Cool [1k\]: есть разбор онлайн
hoyuka [1d\]: Hebrew sounds really nice.
Cool [1k\]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey1trTNNXEk
Ikra [3k\]: спсб
indianayk [?\]: b l12?
USGO1 [-\]: we're using the older style Ing clocks, they can be set to speak in Chinese or English... many of the players prefer Chinese
]
;B[lm]C[flobby [-\]: thanks usgo1
hoyuka [1d\]: oh thanks USGO1.
USGO1 [-\]: The newer style Ing clocks support 4 languages
hoyuka [1d\]: thanks for information!
TheThe [4k\]: what a about goold old fashioned "beep"?
flyalot [1k\]: i see
flobby [-\]: well a beep every second is kind of annoying
]
;W[kl]C[rsun [4d\]: the clocks should be able to speak in one language for each player
flobby [-\]: and you'd need to count how many beeps passed
rsun [4d\]: it's not a hard thing to implement
TheThe [4k\]: clocks givng warnings every second would be annoying indeed
flobby [-\]: they do for the last 10 seconds i think
flyalot [1k\]: maybe just 'beep' is enough
flobby [-\]: btw cho hyeyeon and myungwan is back to review board 2
USGO1 [-\]: I believe the clocks allow each player to choose which language he wants... I don't specifically recall
JoeSecchi [3k\]: I'd probably prefer Chinese..... would be able to block it better
gloomy [3d\]: tong tong
]
;B[oh]
;W[mh]C[USGO1 [-\]: many lower level players don't like the speaking Ing clocks, but higher skilled players seem to prefer them, because they can better pay attention to the board and worry less about their time
rsun [4d\]: Cho's mantra: right? right
JoeSecchi [3k\]: so I can't become skilled until I can accept those clocks?
]
;B[ip]C[USGO1 [-\]: its quite impressive to watch high level players use every second of their byo-yomi even for an obvious move
rija [1d\]: no if you become skilled you will less pay attention to those clocks
USGO1 [-\]: @joe... not what I said at all
JoeSecchi [3k\]: hehehehe
indianayk [?\]: usgo1 is simply saying high level players are mostly chinese
