Strangest / most exciting go games you played

Post by lobotommy »

If you have any strange and/or most exicitng game for you, or any game you are emotionally attached, and you have this "this was great!" feeling - please share :)

Some time ago in a far galaxy away I was visiting friend of mine and we played one game for over 6 hours. Strangest and longest game we ever played :). He was the Good one and I was the Evil one.
Enjoy, please comment, and please share one of your own special-for-you game.

The funniest thing (for me) about this game are two joseki we played, with strange outcome (ko in both cases and for the most part of this game we avoid to start them)

I have a game that I played against someone who I believe was at least 2 stones stronger, I think I was behind pretty much the entire game until he got worn down by the 5th (!) ko fight and misplayed.

Maybe something for the category of strange games. Even after 6 years I remember this game because afterwards I felt like my opponent cheated on me :twisted: After the first 70 moves I feld so good and then I lost so badly :lol:
