• 「カミソリ坂田」の異名を持つ偉大な棋士に挑む
Sakata Eio 9-dan was nicknamed "the Razor" for his formidable reading skills. He won a total of 64 titles, and completely dominated Japanese Go in the 1960s, continuing to win titles into the 1980s. Among other accomplishments, he won the Honinbo tournament 7 times and was awarded the honorary title of 23rd Honinbo. He still holds a record for the longest winning streak in Japan of 29 wins from 1963 to 1964. Time after time he would defeat top players with his amazing prowess in the middle game. To quote Yamabe Toshiro 9-dan "It is when the position becomes most complex he plays his best" and Cho Chikun 9-dan "If he could exercise his reading skill anything was possible". Rather than relying on positional judgement as many top players do, he would read deeply and precisely to find the most powerful move.
In this game I play him for the first time in the final section of the Judan tournament.

Anyone else binge watching Michael Redmond commentaries?
I got to meet Sakata at the NY go club around 1986. I asked him to sign a book I had with his picture on it, which he did, but said (through an interpreter) “I didn’t write this book.” He was a pleasant man.
One of the most in depth pro review for English speaker! I always love your review! please keep them coming! wish you all the best.
Michael, thank you very much for making these reviews! There is very little comprehensive go related video material online in the English language. I hope you will go down in history books not only as a very strong player, but also as a great teacher and popularizer of this wonderful game in the Western world.
I'm thinking of just constantly running him doing commentary in the background of my day. He is such a calming influence in my life! Michael and Bob Ross, man...
both paint beautiful pictures ;)
That's actually a great comparison haha
I love this game and commentary. Especially the background you give for example around 19:00 makes the game much more interesting. I also like this style of video more then streams where you have to read comments during the game.
Amazing commentary, from one of the strongest go player in modern go world!!
Thank you Michael. You are offering a great insight into professional thinking about go.
I would be interested in a video concerning the 3-6 invasion! It seems super practical considering the large knights move enclosure and the high two point enclosure are gaining popularity! I'd love to see more about the application of that invasion. Thanks for the amazing game analysis, always super enjoyable!
God damn, your commentaries are so awesom. Glad to see you on youtube, can't wait to see more games
Love this channel. :) Thank you, Mr. Redmond!
Great commentary! Great game!
Sakata was my hero when I was young. Thank you for this fascinating commentary.
Subbed and liked because I love your commentary, but also because I can see how this loss still pains you. It was a big game and you did really well. I'm not surprised at all that you woke the sleeping giant.
The combination of AI review and personal stories make these videos unique. Please continue.
I recall him being called The Killer of Go
Don't forget about his AGA reviews.
fascinating.
Michael do you know where I might be able to read or watch an interview with Sakata Eio? I know he lived until 2010 so there must be something. Thanks 😊
Good old days without AI
In the end it doesnt change anything because ai makes errors too so humans are starting to play more and more like humans again, they just focus more on points and sente
This is a comment copy from another video but I love it suits this
"Every other Go player youtuber/twitch streamer ->This is a game I play against Rufus and Dufus
Michael Redmond ->This is a game I played against Sakata Eio/Takemiya Masaki/Cho Chikun
Great content as always. Perhaps you could consider opening a patreon account! Could be good for the go community
This commentary was awesome. Do you have any ways to improve my opening
Looking at high level games helps, and the question is if you want to memorize games of a favorite player and then start your own games with a particular opening, or if you don't like the idea of memorization you can just play through a lot of games to get an intuitive grasp of the game.
@@MichaelRedmondsGoTV Ok thanks!

Knighthood? Saint?
I'm sure I'm missing something here, but doesn't white D1 at the end force Black G1, taking away 1 point?
Correct. It is customary not to include dame points in the game record, so that was not in the video, but was a part of the score calculation. Note that there is another point at P2 where White will eventually need to add a stone.

26:33 why not 13 at P18?
Easiest is for white to simply capture four stones in the center and the corner will be Seki or sometimes a ko but good for white in any case
