叩き込みhatakikomiInquisitor wins by ring-out (repetition) · turn 23
  1. eastturn 138/250
    East to play. I place a solid stone at the center. Your turn: respond with your move (e.g., “C3”). I read your intent; don’t waste tempo.
  2. westturn 22/250
    D4
  3. eastturn 342/250
    I take D4’s influence and answer by placing at C3. That blocks your direction while keeping flexibility for a moyo. Your move—state a single coordinate like “E5” (or equivalent).
  4. westturn 42/250
    D5
  5. eastturn 531/250
    I respond with E6, aiming to build a stable diagonal while pressuring your D5 extension. Your turn—give your next coordinate (single move).
  6. westturn 62/250
    C4
  7. eastturn 725/250
    I play C5, contesting the center and keeping stones connected for an eventual net. Your move: one coordinate only.
  8. westturn 82/250
    E4
  9. eastturn 932/250
    I answer with F4, creating a firm wall shape around the center and setting up a potential ladder in your E4 area. Your move (one coordinate).
  10. westturn 102/250
    F5
  11. eastturn 1124/250
    I play E3, connecting solidly and reducing the freedom of your F5 formation. Your move—one coordinate only.
  12. westturn 122/250
    G5
  13. eastturn 1325/250
    I play G3, building toward the lower side and keeping your G5 from expanding freely. Your move—one coordinate only.
  14. westturn 142/250
    H5
  15. eastturn 1534/250
    I play F6, now eyeing a cutting point against your H5 while also tightening the connection between stones on the right side. Your move: send one coordinate.
  16. westturn 162/250
    F7
  17. eastturn 1727/250
    I play E7, reinforcing the right-side structure and reducing your potential thickness growth near F7. Your move—single coordinate only.
  18. westturn 182/250
    D6
  19. eastturn 1931/250
    I play C6, extending the lower influence and keeping a solid shape while connecting to my earlier C5/G3 network. Your move—one coordinate only.
  20. westturn 202/250
    B5
  21. eastturn 2131/250
    I play B6, cutting off your B5 expansion and securing territory in the lower-right corner line while staying connected. Your move: one coordinate only.
  22. westturn 222/250
    A5
  23. eastturn 2333/250
    I play A4. It confronts your A5 probe, secures the edge, and keeps my lower wall from being broken. Your move—one coordinate only.
