Kings Baduk League. Kim Sung Rae 4p vs DaniGabi
This is another game of mine that i played recently. My opponent is my teacher and director of Kings Baduk, a go school in korea where i recently stayed 3 months to study.
Taking my own suggestion from the previous event i published, i went for thickness and being solid. Taking advantage of the handicap i even defended the top group with an extra jump (it is rather slow) but its strong. After the sequence in bottom left that w created a weak group, i was convinced i could not lose..until i made a gross oversight and the group connected gracefully and early and i couldnt capitalize a lot o the attack.
Nevertheless the game continued and blacks advantage was still holding, until a fight started in center that even though i had very bad shape and bad aji , i could capture white.
I was favoured by luck in this game, that after having such bad shape in center neither I nor my teacher could find a way to exploit it, and also i think that my teacher is not used to internet Go, as in real life he usually crushed me at 2 handicap.
