Thank you, these are beautiful posts. I enjoyed very much reading a writeup by Go professional who also took the effort to understand the principles behind MCTS programs as well as develop a basic intution of the gameplay artifacts, strengths and weaknesses of MCTS. It also nicely describes the reason and consequences for Lee Sedol's different approaches during the match.
I think these are really great posts for Go programmers to share with their Go-playing friends if they are curious about AlphaGo's strength and what went on in these games!
