AlphaGo-AlphaGo Game 8: Two 3-3 invasions and some spectacular fighting

"In this game we're going to see two 3-3 invasions; when AlphaGo jumps in to the 3-3, the other AlphaGo does as well," says Michael Redmond 9p in his game commentary on AlphaGo-AlphaGo Game 8. "This is something that happens a lot, and I have my own theories about why that might be. We're also going to see the follow-up moves in both of those corners, so we'll see some options about possible follow-ups. And then there's going to be some spectacular fighting inside of Black's moyo. " Click here for Redmond’s video commentary, hosted by the AGA E-Journal’s Chris Garlock. The video is produced by Michael Wanek and Andrew Jackson. The sgf file was created by Redmond, with editing and transcription by Garlock and Myron Souris.
