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.
