Thanks for your nice words Smurf, and for pointing out the game commentary: I added both your and Nexik’s links in the updated blog entry.

You can find the game (commented by Yoo ChangHyuk) as the latest sample on http://www.gogameworld.com. However, it appears to be a translation of a live commentary so the analysis is not very deep.

I would also like to mention that I’m an enthusiastic reader of your blog (and website) and have been so since the start, and to thank you for the very nice read.

Nexik: I figured it’s from weiqi.tom.com because of the file location, but I was wondering: did you happen to see it on their main page and you noted the file address at that time, or do you know how to navigate through their site and find these kind of game commentaries?

Vincent: I don’t know any other Jie Li but the US amateur, too, so we’re talking about the same person

Sorin: I was actually talking about Jie Li - the amateur I just had a look at the second game, what a bloodbath!

Nexik:
Thanks, it looks like White is winning big if that variation was played. How did you get to that link? Also, I’ve started to follow your nice blog lately: congratulations for being able to comment on all major games!

Vincent:
Indeed, based on Go style it seems to me that of the two Jie Li is the pro that plays to win, and Lee Sedol is the amateur that enjoys playing Go

Justin:
Second game was a blood-bath indeed. Very spectacular!

Nice pictures. The second-round game (http://eidogo.com/#titles/12scf2), which Park won, is also worth checking out. They both end up with half the board and massive amounts of dead stones.

Lee Sedols style sure is interesting. I watched one of Jie Li’s games on KGS a couple of days ago. Lee Sedols Gi is pretty much the exact opposite of Jie Lis ^^
