'ddcg' 9D vs. 'idontca1' 9D (Fan beats Park!)
Here
is a sharp game played by Tingyu Fan 3p against Junghwan Park 9p just minutes
ago on Tygem.
Park
(idontca1)
is the youngest Korean 9-dan pro, and he is very active on Tygem (you can find many
of his games there in the GoSensations archive). He just turned 19 years-old (a
week ago), so we can say that he is still very young and is full of potential.
Fan
(ddcg)
is even younger, only 15 years old. I don't think Park knows who ddcg is in real life as they are from different countries, but their game was certainty
a clash of Go prodigies!
A
few notes about the game:
Black
19 is a trick play. It is very surprising to see a top professional
playing it. White 20 is the correct answer, but I am not sure about the follow
up;
White
54 serves as a ladder breaker;
White
94+96 were a very sharp combination. The fight that followed was very
complicated, but White dominated it and got what he wanted: the momentum to play White 116 (cap).
Black's group was captured and the game ended with an early resignation!
When
playing against ddcg you can never let your guard down!
