Mr. Kim's comments are transcribed in normal case. Mr. Yang's \
comments are transcribed in UPPER CASE.

THE LESSON FOR BLACK IN THIS GAME IS:

ATTACK FROM THE DIRECTION THAT HELPS THE WEAK GROUP IS WORTH \
MORE THAN TAKING PROFIT.]
;B[qd];W[dc];B[pq];W[eq]
C[In general, Mr. Kim says w needs to "break up" the game into \
smaller zones. Apparently e3 is aimed at this.]
;B[oc];W[pn]
C[ A IS FINE.]
;B[np];W[qj]
;B[cp]
C[A IS NOT GOOD HERE (CONTACTS A WEAKER STONE)]
;W[do];B[co];W[dm];B[dn];W[en];B[cn];W[em]
C[Black should not omit the forcing play at b. This is correct \
timing.

MR YANG DISAGREES. HE SAYS A IS OK. IF BLACK PLAYS B, WHITE COULD \
ANSWER AT C7. FURTHER, BLACK DOES NOT WANT TO LOSE THE POTENTIAL \
OF A MOVE AROUND G3.]

(;B[cl];W[lq]
C[Mr. Kim praised black's next play. He said a move at b, which
I was also considering and asked about afterward, would be too \
complicated and unecessarily dangerous for black.

MR YANG SAYS A IS OK (NORMAL) BUT C IS BEST. BETTER TO PRESSURE \
THE BOTTOM. THE RIGHT SIDE IS NOT SO SERIOUS.]

(;B[nn];W[lo]
C[MR YANG SAYS A IS PASSIVE, B IS BETTER]

(;B[qp]
C[Mr. Kim says white should play at b instead of a.]

(;W[qo];B[qm]
C[Mr. Kim said he would be happy to play at b if he could be sureI \
would answer it at s3. But since he thought I would simply block \
at, he played there himself. This is apparently the trouble with \
the marked stone.]
TR[qo]

(;W[pm];B[ro];W[ql];B[rn];W[ol];B[nl];W[nk];B[ml]
C[MR YANG SAYS A IS THE WRONG DIRECTION. SLIDE TO L8 FOR WHITE.]

(;W[mk];B[ll];W[lk];B[jl];W[jn]
C[Mr. Kim suggested b is more valuable than a.]

(;B[kk];W[qf]
C[MR YANG SAYS THE 4TH LINE IS WRONG. BLACK SHOULD PLAY B. THIS \
IS NOT A MOYO AREA. BESIDE BLACK ALREADY HAS THE CENTER COVERED \
WITH THE MARKED STONES.]
TR[kk][jl]

(;B[de]
C[A IS NOT RIGHT. MR YANG SAYS WHITE CAN'T ATTACK SUCCESSFULLY \
WHERE BLACK IS SOLID.]
;W[dg];B[fe];W[gc]
C[.]

(;B[hd]
C[Mr. Kim says that white makes a mischief making overplay here.]
;W[gd];B[ge];W[he]
C[OF COURSE A IS GOOD.]
;B[jd];W[hf];B[hc];W[hb]
C[PLAYING B RIGHT AWAY IS MORE AGGRESSIVE THAN A. (IT LEAVES ATTACKING \
POINTS IN WHITES UPPER LEFT SHAPE WHICH COULD BE SEVERE, SUCH \
AS E17.)]

(;B[ib];W[gb];B[fg]
C[Mr. Kim felt if w played normally at b, then black would answer
at a and have too easy a time of it. In general Mr. Kim was complimentary \
about black's play around here.]

(;W[ld]
C[K12 IS URGENT.]
;B[jf];W[hh]
C[Black's peek strengthens w, but he want to protect the weakness \
at e14.]
SQ[ef]
;B[gg];W[hg];B[cc];W[cb];B[cd];W[bb]
C[A DIRECTION PROBLEM. BLACK PLAYS AT B AND WINS THE GAME.]

(;B[fi]
C[NOW IT MAY GET COMPLICATED.]
;W[kh];B[lg];W[nd];B[od];W[ne];B[pf];W[ng];B[mf]
;W[nf];B[lh];W[ki];B[li];W[kj];B[lj];W[ik];B[il];W[hk];B[oh]
;W[pg]
C[Black's move at a is loose and leads to a loss later. Mr. Kim
sugest simply b. It turns out after b, w cannot get out.


MR YANG SAYS C SOLVES BLACK PROBLEMS.
NOW W LOST CONTROL.]

(;B[ek];W[jg];B[kg];W[ig];B[og];W[of];B[pe];W[nh];B[ni]
;W[oi]
C[I could not decide between a and b. But it turns out that b is
very big because black always has sebaki with the slide to m18.]
SQ[lb]

(;B[oj];W[ph];B[ok];W[nb];B[ob];W[re];B[rd];W[ck]
C[Play at a is really loose. If black played b, black would have
a reasonable game.]

(;B[dl];W[bl];B[bm];W[bj]
C[Mr. Kim thought Black can still hang in there with a connection
at b. White must take gote to live on the left, whereupon black
can reduce the white position on the bottom.]

(;B[ci];W[cm];B[bn];W[ej];B[fj];W[fk];B[gk];W[fl];B[hl]
;W[jk];B[kl];W[gl];B[gj];W[ii];B[dj];W[dk];B[bi];W[el];B[ei]
C[Rest of moves omitted. Black managed to kill himself in the corner. \
If black had played the kikashi at d3 during the joseki, he would \
not have had as problem here abouts.
