]
;W[es]C[mihi [5d\]: w f8
bartosz [4d\]: yose at move 55 :D
Siljan [?\]: yes, tie-break game today 15:00
mihi [5d\]: Lukas has a lot of pressure on him. I think he really wishes and probably also deserves to become next european pro. 
mihi [5d\]: but after first game, I think he decided to not risk too much in heavy fights
KayMin [-\]: True, Lukan probably has more chances in a calm game
bartosz [4d\]: First game wasn't really fighting one, until Lukan probably realized he is 2-3 points behind and then tried something
bartosz [4d\]: At least this is how I see it, but I'm much weaker so probably that's wrong
segev [1d\]: i think soon e14 aji gonna be use to make a reduce fight on the top
KayMin [-\]: Well, Elian has to at least play d1-f1
KayMin [-\]: And then think more
EGF1 [-\]: b 18 min, w 41 min
KayMin [-\]: Isn't it true?
KayMin [-\]: The exchange is.. just good, certainly

;B[de]C[segev [1d\]: oh though g12 first for ladder
]
;W[bf]C[bartosz [4d\]: KayMin I've checked out of curiosity - if you don't want to end in gote in the corner, it's better not to exchange d1 f1
segev [1d\]: f12*
KrtekHonza [4k\]: Hi, what is the clock situation at the moment?
EGF1 [-\]: b 10 min, w 20
]
;B[fe]
;W[ef]C[sum [4d\]: k3 is the kind of move I also like but AI condemns
toctoc [4k\]: b will try F14 ?
segev [1d\]: i think e13 more reasonable but i really lost track of b plan
]
;B[cf]C[bartosz [4d\]: black is hitting blue moves there
bartosz [4d\]: he is really sharp
segev [1d\]: f12 was needed in my pnion
segev [1d\]: wow probably i miss there something
bartosz [4d\]: yeah, me too
bartosz [4d\]: i was just checking bottom left corner with AI 
]
;W[bg]C[bartosz [4d\]: g15 apparently the only move here but
bartosz [4d\]: must be difficult reading
EGF1 [-\]: b 3 min, w 20

;W[ri]C[sum [4d\]: g15 h16 f12 f11 e13 f14 g13 h12 g14 is a plan but lots of variations

Welvang [-\]: white is in trouble
Welvang [-\]: if black has one more move in the center to fix L8, the whole dragon can die
Welvang [-\]: so white can't really fight in the center
]

Welvang [-\]: r6 r5 q5 q6 o7 p7 o6 o5 m4 m5 h2

Valerii [2d?\]: on the bright side, white always has a ko

Welvang [-\]: but
Welvang [-\]: Black has to play n11
Welvang [-\]: otherwise p13 works

Welvang [-\]: ?
Valerii [2d?\]: f1
Valerii [2d?\]: h1 first probably
Valerii [2d?\]: then f1
]
;B[hr]C[Welvang [-\]: what does it change
]
;W[hq]C[Valerii [2d?\]: and then c3
]
;B[is]C[Valerii [2d?\]: black atari 
Valerii [2d?\]: and then c1
Valerii [2d?\]: ko

;W[dr]C[Slinkt [?\]: Maybe another one, but i’m confused about why they started a ko at d1 so long ago. It seems like black gave up the corner just to fight it

;B[fo]

;B[ii]C[Valerii [2d?\]: Because if black wins the ko, group on the bottom dies
mihi [5d\]: time to end the ko
Lilith [2d\]: obviously
Ravendark [1d\]: is that a ko threat?
coconut [2k\]: looks desperate for b
cezary [5d\]: not really
Lilith [2d\]: even if, to small i guess
]
;W[il]C[mihi [5d\]: w should have ended the ko, he could take O18 even if sacrificing the center
tymak [2d?\]: wouldnt be ok for w to finish ko, let b takes center and get some big endgame like O18?
]
;B[hm]C[mihi [5d\]: I think w wants black to threat B15 and close the ko
]
;W[as]C[tymak [2d?\]: now I am bit confused by J8 move...if you are ready to sacrifice it, why make it bigger and don't have G6 atari as option for endgame
]
;B[lk]C[george1 [?\]: What sacrifice? White is alive
]
;W[jg]C[tymak [2d?\]: oh..
cezary [5d\]: because you don't sacrifice, just win the semeai :)
]
;B[ji]C[Valerii [2d?\]: by 2 liberties
]
;W[ig]C[george1 [?\]: 1
]
;B[im]C[Ravendark [1d\]: b owes a move at o17 now
]
;W[jj]
;B[rd]C[KayMin [-\]: o18 please
tymak [2d?\]: I somehow dont expect 6d to play invalid ko threat :-)
]
;W[rc]C[Valerii [2d?\]: He was running out of ko threats
Valerii [2d?\]: and time pressure
]
;B[rb]
;W[nb]C[Ravendark [1d\]: kinda disastrous result from he ko, tho if b has the time to o17 idk if it's enough pts for w
]
;B[re]
;W[rk]
;B[sj]C[Ravendark [1d\]: like this w wins if lives
Valerii [2d?\]: That is why the last 10 moves they played in the center were all mistakes
]
;W[sk]C[cezary [5d\]: even if white dies at r14 they are ahead
Ravendark [1d\]: yeah, I didn't count carefully, just eyeballing
Ravendark [1d\]: totally possible
Ravendark [1d\]: top/center is vast
]
;B[sh]
;W[sg]C[Ravendark [1d\]: t13 s13 s14 t14 s12 
]
