Dear Mochy, I have a general question, in particular with the position of the board at 35:16. The decision that I have some difficulty in making during my games, usually is "when should I leave the anchor in my opponent's board, or should I play safe for another turn?" I see that Akiko was contemplating moving the anchor, and finally decided to stay. How do you analyse the position to decide when to break/run? Thanks again Mochy for your time, patience, and videos.
Good question, but there are no easy answer. It depends on many conditions such as pip count, placement of the anchor, board strenght, how awkward the alternative is etc. I can easily do 2 hours lecture when to leave the anchor ! I am still learning as well. Sorry Shyam this is my answer.

Akikoさんの本を読んで見にきました。知らない世界。深い戦略などわかりませんが雰囲気を感じます。

13:10 rip phil
What did Phil even do to deserve such a public execution?
Thank you for uploading this Mochy! What kind of board is that? Its not a GP, is it?
It is called P-40. They have a website I believe.
Is this your board? Do you know who's board it is? Trying to get one with same color scheme. Thank you
Not sure who owns it. You can contact P-40 and tell them you want to get the same one.
Mochy, how do you find the P 40 compared to other boards?
P3 Gaming other then it weighing 13-15 lbs the P-40 is exceptional!
i love you akiko
