Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 213 There wasn't even a moment to mourn for Li Junhe.

"It's over, although it ended rather abruptly."

Looking at Li Junhe's large group suddenly dying, and the pop-up window on the screen announcing that Black had resigned, Jiang Mobai couldn't help but shake his head: "White is probably leading by about fifty points now. It's only right that Li Junhe resigns, after all, it would be impolite to continue playing."

There was nothing that could be done. The black stones on top couldn't find any eye positions anymore and were simply killed. I really didn't expect this group to be killed so easily. AlphaGo is too perceptive.

Or perhaps this area is a trap he deliberately set. He always manages to leave bait and lay traps without you even realizing it. Even if you don't step into the trap, you won't profit, but once you do, you're doomed.

Therefore, when playing chess with him, you not only have to consider your own situation, but also be extremely careful when placing your pieces, just like defusing a mine, for fear of making a mistake.

I don't know how Li Junhe is feeling right now, but this game was definitely quite frustrating. However, every game against AlphaGo seems to be frustrating, so it doesn't really matter.

In fact, even if this large group of dragons survived, it wouldn't make much difference. After all, even if this group survived, AlphaGo would still have a 20-point advantage overall. The main problem lies in the earlier stages.

In the bottom right corner, Li Junhe not only failed to capture the target, but AlphaGo also managed to capture it. From that point on, he was probably already furious.

Li Junhe's performance wasn't particularly outstanding, but it wasn't bad either; it just goes to show how incredibly strong AlphaGo is.

Anjing Sanduan said with some regret, "It's a pity that Li Junhe himself is not at the live broadcast site, otherwise I would like to interview him about his current mood."

"That's a bit like rubbing salt into someone's wound, but it's okay. If I win, you can interview me. If I lose, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Jiang Mobai couldn't help but shake his head. He originally felt that his chances of winning against AlphaGo with a handicap were at least 50%, but now it seemed that 30% was already considered high.

"So, what are Jiang Mobai's odds of winning in the second game?"

"Seventy percent."

"Seventy percent is that high?"

When An Jing San Duan heard this, he was slightly surprised and said that if Jiang Mo Bai had said this number before Li Junhe's competition, he wouldn't have been too surprised.

It's normal for top players to be confident, especially since they're giving the first move.

If you can't beat them when they're first, do you still think you can't beat them when they're first?
Given Li Junhe's performance, is Jiang Mobai still so confident?
Is this the confidence of a top chess player?!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mobai couldn't help but shake his head: "Seventy percent belongs to others, and even getting thirty percent depends on AlphaGo's attitude."

Thinking about it this way, it seems like everyone else is now begging on their knees!

Thinking of this, Jiang Mobai felt he couldn't go on. No matter what, he had to prove himself to the world's top chess players and win the game, even if it meant standing up!
With 196 moves remaining, Li Junhe's game came to a complete end.

A human Go player, Lee Jun-hyuk, who was ranked number one in the rankings, lost the first game against AlphaGo.

To some extent, this signifies that AlphaGo has truly surpassed the world's top Go players by a whole level.

After all, even the world's top Go players would find it difficult to win by giving up a single move against stronger opponents who are a level below them. Regardless of the outcome of the remaining four games, after today everyone will agree on one thing: AlphaGo is number one in the world, in a league of its own.

As for the others, I can only line up behind him.

[Naihe Xiaowangchuan]: AlphaGo is invincible! I'm impressed!
[Not eating scallions]: Let the world be the first!
[Honey Princess]: Do you think AlphaGo might be a girl? Or even a rich loli! You could totally use her as a prototype for a Go novel!

[Big Orange Cat]: Don't get carried away! A female Go player with that kind of skill? Stop fantasizing!

[Yang Li]: I'm so angry and cold! This is discrimination against women again! When will women be treated equally in Go and be able to stand up for themselves?!
[Tianluo Leiguang]: If you're bad, practice more; if you can't handle the game, don't play! I support canceling all women's Go competitions so everyone can compete on the same stage! It's these female noobs who are so bad at Go that are forced to fight each other!
As the discussion in the comments section gradually shifted from AlphaGo to a magical showdown, Yi Zheng couldn't help but scratch his face.

I feel like any topic is slowly turning into a discussion about gender antagonism. Has the version been updated again?
"Li Junhe actually lost."

It's already a disgrace for the world's number one to give someone a handicap, but to lose is even worse.

Could it be that teams will use this incident to pressure Li Junhe about his signing price next year...?

If Lee Jun-hyuk's commercial value is significantly reduced, the Silla Chess Academy's revenue will also shrink considerably! Not to mention their own cut!
The headmaster of the Silla Go Academy slumped weakly into his chair. The world's number one, whom he had personally trained, had lost to an unknown nobody who had appeared out of nowhere.

How could such a thing happen?
The director of the Silla Chess Academy said that none of his nightmares over the years had ever been this terrifying.

Bizarre, bizarre, absurd, utterly illogical!

"Dean, Li Junhe, 9-dan, called and said he's going back to get some rest. He doesn't need to continue tomorrow's matches; everything is over tonight."

The head of the Silla Chess Academy waved the phone away, showing no interest in answering: "Let him be. That's it. All we can do now is pray that the other four lose and that these four don't run away at the last minute!"

The director of the Silla Chess Academy doesn't even need to answer the phone to know what Lee Jun-hyuk is probably like now.

Collapse? Isolation? Shattered Dao heart?

You reap what you sow. This is what they mean by "not listening to the elders leads to trouble." If you had obediently listened to your elders, you wouldn't have suffered like this.

Now all we can do is pray that the other top-ranked guys all get caught in the gutter tonight... no, they capsize in the waves!

It's better for everyone to be ruined than for Li Junhe to be ruined alone.

"You're going to prepare a computer for me? I was originally planning to download it on my phone."

Seeing the laptop brought over to the live broadcast room, Jiang Mobai couldn't help but shake his head. Playing online chess on a laptop placed on a chessboard always gave off a cyberpunk vibe.

After composing himself, Jiang Mobai didn't immediately request a match. Instead, he turned to the camera and made a peace sign: "Hello everyone in the live stream. There's no time to mourn Li Junhe's defeat. Next up is Jiang Mobai, ranked second in the world!"
I'm willing to lose if I bet!
