Archive: Yamada Kimio, 9-dan on IGS
Yamada, 9-dan (Mai) was not the strongest on IGS, but he crushed lot of star players, including Computer, bakon, YUKO, pineapple, You and others. Here is the game he played with Yamashiro Hiroshi, 9p (agasa on IGS)
White's joseki 10+12 is very dubious in such fuseki. Black got a big lead on territory and keep it till the end. Yamada's Go is always territory-oriented and he is good at such games, when it's necessary to reduce opponent's influence, or invade and live inside.
