1. ... K-4b 2.P-9f
*You advanced the left edge pawn. This is the preparation of moving your Bishop from 8h to 9g.
K-3b 3.B-9g *Please confirm your Bishop goes to 3a now. The opponent's King is suddenly in danger. K-2b 4.P-2f *You advanced your Rook's pawn. It's generally importatnt to activate your Rook and Bishop well in shogi. Both are called Major Pieces. K-3b 5.P-2e *You advanced your Rook's pawn again. The pawn is supported by your Rook. K-2a 6.P-2d *You advanced your Rook's pawn third time. The pawn advancement supported by Rook is one of the basic tactics in shogi. K-1a 7.P-2c+ *Your Pawn got promoted on 2c. The promoted pawn can move to 7 squares as a Gold does while unpromoted one can move to one. In other words, a promoted pawn is as seven times capable as an unpromoted pawn. Making promoted pawn is one of the basic tactics in shogi. K-2a 8.+P-2b *Checkmate. The promoted pawn is supported by your Rook on 2h. So the King cannot take it. resigns

In case you have played a game on playok or
shogidojo 24, you can save the game to your hard disk, open it in BCM
and let the engine do the analysis for you. It’s absolutely amazing
what it finds out. By the way, in order to load playok files you have
to save the .txt files and then change the file ending (e.g. to esn) as
you won’t be able to load the txt file directly. So when your original
file was named “game.txt”, changing the name to “game.esn” will allow
you to open the file in BCM. For shogi club 24, you first have to copy
the game notation and save it with the help of an editor (unicode).
After changing the file ending to kif you should be able to load these
games, too.
Some minor correction about the file endings posted to the comment field of this entry by rick7. I'm copying and pasting it below.(added on Dec. 17)
Hi Takodori, thanks for the link. Just one little correction: I originally wrote that the file endings should be changed to esn in order to replay playok games. This actually works but I was told that psn is the correct choice, so "game.txt" should be changed to "game.psn" instead of "game.esn".
