Fun at Coysen

Post by Joaz Banbeck »

This is from the second round of the Cootsen. I didn't keep score, but I took a cell camera shot when it got interesting, so we start in medias res. ( BTW, I'm not really looking for advice on this one. If it didn't work, I'm not sure that I'd want to know )


I had just finished a fight in the lower right, in gote, connecting with the marked stone.

He sees that his group in the middle is week, so he tries to elbow his way out. I keep trying to lock him in.

He can get out with 5, so I play 6, offering to let half escape, if he will give me the other half.

He declines, so I offer to let him out if he will just give me three stones. He declines again with 3, so I repeat the offer to let me have half with 4.

I knew where I was, I just am essentially blind in one eye. So typos happen, especially on words that I use infrequently.

Indeed. Rumour has it that the organizers are considering adding a new section to the tournament, for veterans of the AGA.

To be known as the Old Cootsen.
And the go-fever which is more real than many doctors’ diseases, waked and raged...
