    Hi,

    Nice job by Gu Li. I like how he saved his isolated stiónes at N14 and C6 with attacking the oponnent stones.

    Besides it’s interesting to have some variations trees in the file, but could it be possible, that some cmments to the variations are added for a better understanding of the difference ?
