This commentary on a professional game was recently posted on gocommentary.com, and I thought I’d share it with the club. This 2005 game between Luo Xihe (9p) and Choi Cheolhan (9p) features a series of astonishing exchanges, culminating in an incredible game-winning sacrifice to avert a triple ko.
Although the game content is extremely complex, I think it’s worth everyone’s time to watch this commentary because of the dramatic quality of the game and high level of play.
We had seven members show up last night and the ladder game winners were Rob over Josh, Tom over Povilas, Nate over Don, and Povilas in a bonus ladder match over Charles. As a result, nobody moved!
The meeting kicked off with a group review of Don and Ryan’s ladder game from last week (annotated game record below the fold). Later the discussion turned to Rob’s interest in pro games and the styles of various pros. I’ve posted a famous and bizarre game of Lee Sedol below the fold.
