 GoAhead NR : how does MF choose joseki, David?
 fotland 1k : looks at several variations from library, lays out entire sequence,
 fotland 1k : then local obvious responses, full board quiescence.
 fotland 1k : order of sequences to try is specified in library
 fotland 1k : total number of endpoints is limited.
]
;B[cc]BL[2408]
;W[cd]WL[2965]C[
 fotland 1k : you have this joseki in your library?
 GoAhead NR : GoAhead just plays randomly choosen joseki
 GoAhead NR : some additional code for extensions, but not so good
 fotland 1k : I like to lay out the more popular sequences to see if they work with the adjacent corners
 fotland 1k : also helps avoid joseki that depend on ladders that don't work.
 GoAhead NR : yes, ladder josekis are a problem to GoAhead
 fotland 1k : but ladder is good for B this time, so not a problem.

 fotland 1k : play in upper side, and B is ahead.
 GoAhead NR : I think W should have played d14 instead of b14
 fotland 1k : thats more popular.  But with ladder good, still not a great result.

;W[rf]WL[2891]C[
 GoAhead NR : l17 was no good idea - now too close to second wall
 GoAhead NR : better k17 instead
 fotland 1k : I like a high move, K16 or L16.
 GoAhead NR : I see - better
]
;B[og]BL[1969]
;W[eq]WL[2884]C[
 fotland 1k : MF is not good at reducing moves.  It's more likely to invade deeply and die.
]
;B[nq]BL[1925]
;W[qn]WL[2876]C[
 fotland 1k : too close, halfway is better.
 GoAhead NR : another randomly choosen move

]
;B[qb]BL[1862]

 GoAhead NR : your r6/r9 works good at right side
 fotland 1k : r6/R9 is weak.  you can attack it to seal the big upper side.
]
;B[ob]BL[1813]
;W[qe]WL[2841]C[
 fotland 1k : strange way to live.  S19 or r19 is better.
 GoAhead NR : I think MF will cut sooner or later around q12 and then fight
]
;B[ke]BL[1731]
;W[pg]WL[2835]C[
 GoAhead NR : what did i say
 fotland 1k : looks like it...
 GoAhead NR : GA claims B+10
 fotland 1k : MF thinks B+16.
]
;B[pi]BL[1681]C[
 GoAhead NR : bad move
]
;W[oh]WL[2824]
;B[ph]BL[1625]
;W[nh]WL[2805]C[
 fotland 1k : now if p14, p10.
 GoAhead NR : I see - severe
]
;B[oj]BL[1559]
;W[mi]WL[2793]C[
 fotland 1k : good.  2 W stones are in trouble.
 GoAhead NR : this is GA's local mode - he only chooses between moves generated from p10 group currently
]
;B[om]BL[1482]
;W[rj]WL[2771]C[
 fotland 1k : MF might decide it is hopeless to save these stones.
]
;B[pk]BL[1444]C[
 fotland 1k : lets W connect...
 GoAhead NR : oh this is bad - B must intersect
]
;W[si]WL[2744]C[
 GoAhead NR : the proper connection
 fotland 1k : now MF B+18
 fotland 1k : I'd connect from the other side at t13.
 GoAhead NR : please explain
 fotland 1k : small difference.  Maybe later you make ko threat to cut in big ko.
]
;B[of]BL[1354]C[
 fotland 1k : if W decides to sac stones, T13 saves one more stone.
]
;W[kh]WL[2728]C[
 fotland 1k : big moves on bottom and left side.
 GoAhead NR : now that B group is save more or less, he returned to the shape move at p14
 fotland 1k : e11 big for both sides.
 GoAhead NR : I recently worked on these moves, where two mojos overlap
]
;B[pn]BL[1244]C[
 GoAhead NR : ... but not so!
]
;W[ji]WL[2721]C[
 fotland 1k : small move for small move.
 GoAhead NR : yes, both are busy to connect unimportant things
 fotland 1k : maybe GA will move to capture R7?
 GoAhead NR : maybe - he likes small bones very much
]
;B[qm]BL[1148]
;W[kk]WL[2716]C[
 fotland 1k : but MF still worried about group in center.
 GoAhead NR : building center strength is not so bad for W in this game
 fotland 1k : yes, works well for W with E11 or K10
 GoAhead NR : I don't know how to get rid of those small stone eating moves
 fotland 1k : better evaluation.
 fotland 1k : this capture only a few points.  After big extension, if W saves, B gets more, and sente.
 fotland 1k : now E11 looks even bigger.
]
;B[qo]BL[1028]
;W[dm]WL[2709]C[
 fotland 1k : why R5 - W is already captured.
 GoAhead NR : GA was not sure
]
;B[rm]BL[946]C[
 GoAhead NR : oh, another bad one
 GoAhead NR : W+1 now
 fotland 1k : MF thinks tie.
]
;W[jq]WL[2704]C[
 GoAhead NR : finally MF plays big points - well done
 fotland 1k : W gets all the big moves.  GA 4 moves to capture one stone :-(
 GoAhead NR : shame on me
]
;B[sk]BL[808]C[
 GoAhead NR : another blunder - yes you were right
 fotland 1k : I guess the last one was a shape move, not to capture, right?
]
;W[lq]WL[2701]C[
 fotland 1k : maybe W gets 100 points in lower center?
 fotland 1k : MF qualifies shapes with group strength.  Won't make this move if one group is dead.
 GoAhead NR : e11 still bigger than m3, but m3 also an excellent move
 fotland 1k : mf prefers extensions toward enemy.
]
;B[jo]BL[637]
;W[lo]WL[2694]C[
 fotland 1k : now we get a good fight...
 GoAhead NR : well, difficult fight for B
 GoAhead NR : W should welcome this
]
;B[iq]BL[584]C[
 fotland 1k : but B might live inside W terr.  I prefer reducing moves from B.
]
;W[lm]WL[2663]C[
 fotland 1k : MF always goes for safety first.
 GoAhead NR : MF again busy with connecting
 fotland 1k : now B can live easily.
]
;B[ip]BL[531]
;W[ho]WL[2654]C[
 fotland 1k : better for b to play k2 or k4 than j4.
 GoAhead NR : I'm pretty sure that MF kills B here - no chance
 fotland 1k : easy to live.
]
;B[jm]BL[483]C[
 GoAhead NR : that direction leads to nowhere ...
]
;W[hr]WL[2631]C[
 fotland 1k : so agressive!
 GoAhead NR : just as usual, if MF smells death
 fotland 1k : but g3 would be better - still no eyes for B here.
]
;B[ir]BL[412]
;W[gp]WL[2622]C[
 fotland 1k : I guess MF wants the possile connection to help group on right.
 fotland 1k : now MF thinks w+49!
 GoAhead NR : I've W+14
 fotland 1k : must think the B group is dead.
 GoAhead NR : it is.
]
;B[hq]BL[333]C[
 GoAhead NR : terrible
 fotland 1k : still should live.
]
;W[gq]WL[2613]C[
 fotland 1k : there's one eye.
 fotland 1k : l4 peep gives another one.
 GoAhead NR : why W(g3)? - g2 was obvious
 fotland 1k : don't know.  Sometimes doesn't see eye here.
 fotland 1k : or maybe thinks group is dead still - just one eye.
 fotland 1k : h2 move was bad.
]
;B[gr]BL[268]
;W[fr]WL[2597]
;B[hs]BL[213]
;W[jr]WL[2589]C[
 GoAhead NR : that peep chance has disappeared
]
;B[hm]BL[133]
;W[in]WL[2572]C[
 fotland 1k : I worry about W group on right.
 GoAhead NR : a cut around m8 later you mean?
 fotland 1k : after K6, B can cut at M6.  If B gets enough outside libs, can win semeai.
 fotland 1k : also cut around M8.  W is not thick here.
]
;B[jn]BL[28]
;W[im]WL[2560]C[
 GoAhead NR : is entering byo-yomi
]
;B[il]BL[2969]
;W[jl]WL[2546]C[
 fotland 1k : now B can cut, but W has more liberties.
 GoAhead NR : looks like game over
 fotland 1k : no - If B cuts, W might live rather than fight, and let B out.
]
;B[hl]BL[2891]
;W[mk]WL[2533]C[
 fotland 1k : W fixes the connection.
 GoAhead NR : GA considers his stones as dead now
]
;B[hi]BL[2808]C[
 GoAhead NR : W+32
 fotland 1k : MF thiks W+47
]
;W[hg]WL[2523]C[
 fotland 1k : again so agressive!
 GoAhead NR : good move
 GoAhead NR : seems that you do not often watch MF's games - always aggressive like this
 fotland 1k : I know.  It's alwaus been like this, since it was 30K.
]
;B[fi]BL[2747]
;W[ih]WL[2513]C[
 fotland 1k : I don't know how to stop it.
 GoAhead NR : B's mojo will be devasted
 GoAhead NR : GA's local mode will continue in center
]
;B[di]BL[2681]
;W[ci]WL[2510]C[
 fotland 1k : d11 good - connect with sente and reduce side.
 fotland 1k : now w gets nothing on left.
 fotland 1k : h15, d9 both look good.
]
;B[dh]BL[2617]C[
 GoAhead NR : oh - too bad
]
;W[hd]WL[2502]C[
 fotland 1k : why d12?  B already connected.
 GoAhead NR : yes, it's frustating. Seems like shape error
]
;B[cj]BL[2538]
;W[cl]WL[2498]C[
 fotland 1k : now W+117!
 GoAhead NR : W better cut instead
 GoAhead NR : no reason to fear anything in that region
]
;B[bj]BL[2458]
;W[hb]WL[2492]C[
 GoAhead NR : MF must be thinking he can kill the whole left B group
 fotland 1k : I think MF wants to kill the entire left big B group.
 GoAhead NR : GA doesn't see the danger
]
;B[dj]BL[2352]
;W[fe]WL[2480]C[
 GoAhead NR : strong
 fotland 1k : eye stealing...
 GoAhead NR : too bad - MF is in good shape today
 fotland 1k : as usual, fell behind in fuseki...
]
;B[ed]BL[2271]
;W[fj]WL[2474]C[
 GoAhead NR : brutal
 fotland 1k : strange.
 fotland 1k : just f9 and capture it.
 GoAhead NR : now GA marks his stones with "?", indicating the danger
]
;B[el]BL[2177]C[
 fotland 1k : good!
 fotland 1k : now should live.
 fotland 1k : maybe h10 is intersting.
]
;W[gi]WL[2419]C[
 GoAhead NR : but even if B lives, W gained here - no question
 fotland 1k : yes, B lost upper side.
 GoAhead NR : B has 40 points or so and it can't become more
]
;B[gj]BL[2059]
;W[gh]WL[2371]C[
 GoAhead NR : yes, ahead after fuseki (as always), but GA is quite bad in defending mojos
 fotland 1k : W+61
 GoAhead NR : W+40
]
;B[hj]BL[1942]
;W[nc]WL[2338]C[
 fotland 1k : time for n14 or n2
 fotland 1k : now trying to kill other big b group.
 fotland 1k : mf doesn't see B connection to L15/L17.
]
;B[mf]BL[1857]C[
 fotland 1k : good.

 fotland 1k : I don't know what MF was thinking of.
]
;B[pa]BL[1229]C[
 GoAhead NR : is there any danger for the W group on left as a whole?
 fotland 1k : no danger.
]
;W[nb]WL[2114]C[
 GoAhead NR : no danger - no problem, W wins
 GoAhead NR : MF has switched to attack UR corner now
]
;B[ra]BL[1133]C[
 GoAhead NR : ... but should be careful now
]
;W[sb]WL[2052]C[
 GoAhead NR : T18 is good, unconditionally alive
 fotland 1k : how about S13, T13, T14, T15, S16 W dies.
 GoAhead NR : hmm, I was wrong - good reading, David
 fotland 1k : to live, W must give up 3 W stones.
 GoAhead NR : I see.
]
;B[lf]BL[1058]C[
 GoAhead NR : GA is busy now with L&D calculations everywhere on board
]
;W[fk]WL[2013]C[
 GoAhead NR : GA might play b13 now
 GoAhead NR : GA thinks f9/f10 still dead
]
;B[af]BL[899]C[
 fotland 1k : good way to capture.
]
;W[fl]WL[1969]C[
 fotland 1k : see how t13 was better than t11 to connect?
 fotland 1k : general rule for connecting - play near bigger group if a choice.
 GoAhead NR : nice proverb
 GoAhead NR : now that will become difficult for B
 fotland 1k : do 6 B stones in center die?
]
;B[fm]BL[756]C[
 GoAhead NR : yes, seems hopeless for B
 fotland 1k : hard for me to read after b f7
 fotland 1k : f7, e7, e9, g7, f6, g6, and w can connect or capture f7.
 fotland 1k : now lets see if MF can read this...
 fotland 1k : f7 or g7 works.
]
;W[em]WL[1912]C[
 GoAhead NR : MF is just too strong at such types of reading
 GoAhead NR : I'm a little disappointed about this game
 GoAhead NR : thought that GA could make it closer than last one - not so!
 fotland 1k : like last game, GA started with thickness in center, but MF ended with terr in center.
]
;B[ek]BL[619]C[
 fotland 1k : was all the 4 wasted moves in lower right.
 fotland 1k : like giving back 3 stone handicap.
 GoAhead NR : yes, you are right.
]
;W[gm]WL[1859]C[
 fotland 1k : should be easy to fix though.
 GoAhead NR : I'll try it till next monday
 GoAhead NR : it looks easy but it's hard indeed
 GoAhead NR : if GA thinks, he can kill something, he forgets about anything else
 fotland 1k : well, qualify shapes with group strength part is easy.
]
;B[ff]BL[493]C[
 fotland 1k : cool.  Programs are playing same sequence I read out.  Both are strong.
 GoAhead NR : h6 instead would have been a chance?
]
;W[ie]WL[1816]C[
 GoAhead NR : has entered byo-yomi again
 fotland 1k : I didn't see h6.  Yes, that works.
 fotland 1k : h6 j5 g5 h4 f6
 GoAhead NR : but too complicated for GA
 fotland 1k : eventually w will add a stone since it is ahead.
]
;B[fh]BL[2880]
;W[fn]WL[1803]C[
 GoAhead NR : trying to make eyes for B group ...
 fotland 1k : w+72
 GoAhead NR : I think it's time to resign
 GoAhead NR : W+30
 fotland 1k : w upper left might still die, but its not enough.
