39. D 13.

41. G 9.

42. G 6. If this move had not divided the black groups, Black would have become too powerful.

43. H 7.

44. E 9. This connects the two parts of the White position, which connection was threatened by Black’s thirty-third stone. Moreover, the “Sente” remains with White,' because Black cannot allow his position to be broken into through F 10.

45. Gl 2.

46. Q 14.

47. R 14.

48. R 17.

49. S 17.

50. Q 16.

51. R 15.

52. R 11. The beginner will wonder that 52 Q 15 did not follow 51 R 15. This is because 53 R 10-54 R 9 would result, and White would be at a disadvantage. The moves 46-52 are part of a deeply thought-out plan on the part of White. Black could afford to ignore No. 4 as long as it stood alone. Thereupon White increases it by Nos. 48 and 50, and Black must accept the sacrifice, because otherwise Nos. 27-29 are threatened. By this sacrifice White gets the territory around No. 27, and also has an opportunity of increasing his position on line Q by his fifty-second move.
