A wedding and a cake

Post by Uberdude »

Some of you may recall my study journal a couple of years ago of going off to BIBA in Korea which turned into a love story. Well, Sai and I got married the Saturday before last, so I thought you might like a photo of us cutting the wedding cake:

And here's one of just the cake; imagine it's actually on a larger board if you want to solve the problem (black to play).

Congratulations. What is the sequence of moves which got to that position? Hope you didn't spend your wedding night trying to figure it out. :lol: :razz: :lol:
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

Congratulations. Famous problem, however, that does not look like the kind of position black really wants to get out of. Forget tesuji here, the honte is to be blissfully captured.
