If white E5, move 6, was bad, and as the game was a half point win for black, does that mean Chang thought black had a losing position after move 5? In game 3, again if white E5 was a bad move, did the pros feel black was behind at move 9? I'm sensing more doubt in the game 3 commentary, though :-) Does anyone have white 2 at F5 in their opening book (*), in preference to F4? Or has a refutation to F5 been found now? Darren *: Other than me :-) But I didn't collect enough games of this opening to feel confident with it. _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://dvandva.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
