Middlebury Tournament

Finally played a real life tournament again. Here are photos.

Vermont: From the Word Go Tournament February 13 2010


The short story:

  • Game 1: even against a shodan, I killed myself in byo yomi, oops.
  • Game 2: even against a shodan, I ate a lot of his stones, including a basic corner shape when he ignored the sente descent. Study paying off ^^
  • Game 3: giving 2 stones to a 2k, and he grew much bigger than I did, oh well.
  • Game 4: giving 4 stones to a 4k, feeling way behind, but finagling one of his corners into a carpenter's square which sadly passed away, so I won that game.


Summary 2-2 result which is ok at my current level of rustiness (is that even a word? ^^)
