In game 79 (7 komi, NZ rules), black gets an enormous bottom right corner and side whereas white gets an enormous top and center area enclosing black’s top left corner. (The .sgf includes two high-playout variations which appear to be the main line.)

Wow, this experiment is turning out pretty successful! White seems to still have a slight advantage with 7 komi but those results are very even.

Btw I didn’t know this was customary for sunjang baduk. I may play a new game with black tengen and white 5 komi
In game 88 (7 komi, NZ rules), black casually sacrifices an 8-stone group by move 40. White ends up winning the game by around 10 points.
Game 89 (7 komi, NZ rules) is our first game with four 3-3 invasions. Interestingly, moves 9 - 16 are identical with game 49, although move 9 was reached by a different move order. Game 89 ended as a draw, with black and white each having five living groups on the board. We almost got our first ever flying dagger joseki. (Technically, it’s only called “flying dagger” if black move 39 is N6. The result in this game seems to be called “simple inside cut B”.) And we got a crane’s nest! Check out the cool symmetry at move 82.

Game 91 (7 komi, NZ rules) is the tenth and last game continuing from white 24. H5 (after games 68, 70, 71, 72, 75, 76, 79, 80 and 90). The first crosscut doesn’t occur until move 86.
In game 92 (NZ rules, 7 komi), black and white each manage to live with their upper left dragons. It ends as a draw.
In game 93 (NZ rules, 7 komi), around move 134 white starts to make a small life inside black’s center moyo, but black profits enough elsewhere to draw the game. White 252 and 266 are such pretty-looking endgame moves
266 is a bit less obvious as 252 but ok.
What about exchanging 240-241 and then not connecting?
