Comment by Honinbo Shuye:
“Black’s twenty-sixth move is premature, and it has the effect of precipitating the contest too early in the game. The territory around that point is dangerous ground for Black. N 17 would have been better.”

27. N 4. This is necessary to lead out the stone at N 3. “Ikken tobi” would dangerous.

28. L 5. Leading out toward the center. ("Ikken taka tobi”)

Comment by Honinbo Shuye:
“Black should have played at H 4. White would then play at F 2, and Black would reply at F 1.”

Comment by Honinbo Shuye :
“Black should still play at H 4.”
