Go: You Slaughtered My Big Dragon, and Now You Want Me to Go Easy on You?

Yesterday, a kid showed up and said he wanted to play me. I said, sure.

His "Heavenly Demon Transformation" was incredible. Whoosh! A white stone leaped out to cut off my group! So fast!

A connection, a shoulder hit, a tiger's mouth, a push! He thought victory was in the bag!

But he didn't know I had a cheat. I saw through all his moves, even defending against the highly deceptive "Cosmic Style"!

By traditional standards, a small win would have been enough. He'd already lost.

But I got careless. I didn't use "Heaven and Earth as One" to finish him off completely!

This kid has no respect for Go etiquette! He came to trick me, to ambush me, a lousy player who'd only just reached first dan!

Is that okay? It's not okay!

I advise this kid to think it over and reflect carefully. Don't pull that clever stunt again! That cheap trick!
