AlphaGo Zero vs. Master; Game 7: The magic show

AG Zero comes up with a new variation to handle Master's shimari, "and then there's a bit of a magic show, in which Zero does all sorts of stuff inside Master's moyo," says Michael Redmond 9P in his commentary. “It's pretty hard to believe.” “The relaxed and fun atmosphere (Redmond and Garlock) have when doing these reviews is great," says Rory Mitchell. “It keeps things light amidst all the intense thinking required, and ultimately makes these videos very rewatchable." Adds GerSHAK, “Absolutely BEAUTIFUL game to watch. Loved the post-game summary of white's most exciting moves, too.” Click here for Redmond’s video commentary, hosted by the AGA E-Journal’s Chris Garlock, and see below for the sgf commentary.
