Gu Li stream was best because they had four people (Gu Li, Yu Bin, the amateur champion of Guangdong, and a hightech CEO who plays Go) which made it feel like a party. (Mandarin only sorry :smug:)

I watched myungwan and jackson instead of Redmond. How was their stream?

Redmond actually keeps up with the game, instead of Myungwan who goes off bizarre variations. Redmond is pretty good at locking in the future flow of the game too, just his companion interrupts him too much about stupid poo poo.

Also I find Myungwan's accent really annoying for some reason.

In contrast, I can't stand Chris Garlock, and Redmond's "this is the next move" or brief "here's what doesn't work" are not as interesting to me as Myungwan's digressions. To each their own, I guess.

Redmond has, on numerous occasions already, predicted the flow of the game by 3 or 4 moves. Granted, he looks smug as hell when his predictions come true. But so what, I would too if I could read the absolute top players of the world.

So, any predictions for game three? What kind of game will Lee Sedol try to play? More aggressive maybe? Focus more on the early game?

So I haven't seen the entire game (just the last hour and now the first) but it seems like Lee Sedol tried to attack and get an advantage much earlier than the previous games? With as only result that AlphaGo just had an advantage much earlier as well. Freaky.

Andrew Jackson is a...3d amateur I think? He said his rank in a commentary of a non alpha go game.


Michael Redmond is a 9p, http://www.goratings.org/ has him at 542nd in the world, Fan Hui at 513, Lee Sedol at #4.

That's sort of how I read it, too. Lee Sedol seemingly has no answer for AlphaGo.

I would respect AlphaGo more if it drew Dickbutt on the board.

EDIT: Holy poo poo, Lee Sedol is 1hr behind on time.

EDIT2: Chris Garlock is definitely becoming a better MC as time goes on and he and Redmond seem to almost have a chummy rapport now.

We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

Man have to leave for work. Looks like Lee sedol may have turned this game around.
