Daniel Sepczuk (blue) vs Niall Cardin (red) Notes about each move, in reverse order, from move 26. Little Golem, game #1401976: URL: http://www.littlegolem.net/jsp/game/game.jsp?gid=1401976 Sorry about formatted - at present all blue moves or pieces are in (), e.g. blues first move was at (I10). Nothing else is in ().

Niall: Here is a summary at move 43, the game has clearly been won by blue. The key moves are G8 and G9. However:

- G9 (H7) H8 (I6) - blue connects
- G8 (F9) G9 (F11) F10 (E11) E10 (C12) - blue connects

Red cannot threaten the blue connections to the right with C10 or similar, (C5) stones deal with everything.

- B10 (C8) exchange doesn't block (C12).

Red can deal with (H3) and (G5) related complications. I3 is a key move for most of these variations. Also

- (G3) H3 (I1) F2 and red connects.
