The last 2 sessions, Vox has won 3/5 games. It seems to be getting harder for me to maintain my winning ways giving 2 stones and receiving 6.5 points komi. As much as I want to kick his butt over the board (online in this case), I’m also cheering him on, as I relish our most competitive games.

We’re both finding a lot of value in doing game reviews after each game. It’s given us an opportunity to identify problem moves and learn from our mistakes. Of course it’s easier to see what we ought to have done after the fact. In the heat of battle, while concentrating juggling so many things in your mind, it isn’t nearly so easy.
