Which game on my new board?

I'm getting a new nice board this weekend (my friends' b-day present), with a set of neat stones, too. My previous board was lousy

sooo...
I wonder which should be the first pro game to replay on it. I like the players in the list, from most to least and wanted someone else to have a stake at it and vote

Also suggestions for specific games is welcome, for Jowa it would probably be the blood vomiting, but for the rest I don't know of any "very" special games (all are)

I choose Dosaku, arguably the greatest player of all time.

My first game was Go-Shusai (game of the century). Amazing how move 160 erased Go's centre!
Next I replayed Dosaku's masterpiece. I have to check the review in Appreciating Famous Games (I was lazy and just used the SGF from SmartGo Kifu) to see where Dosaku went wrong in the beginning, needing to catch up.
Having a nice-looking board is awesome

went wrong?!
as I recall, the only questionable moves in that review were by his opponent, Yasui Shunchi.
its hard to catch up from any handicap, and to be within one point would be a masterpiece for anybody
