Thank you for another excellent demonstration about how to solve hard sudokus. Possibly one of the rare examples where the pencil mark checker would only help novices who over pencil mark :).
A few naked singles that cracked this puzzle. I did not find the 138 triple in B3, but noticed that what ended up the naked 5 in there being heavily restricted, then the 6 in B3 and the 4 in B1
13:15. The pointing 9's (box 4) are also important. I found that out the hard way!
I missed the 4 in box 1 forever and that cracked the rest of the puzzle for me.
Seems we had a similar experience!
Thank you!
13:04 for me. Tricky little puzzle today. Thanks for posting.
14:21 for me. When I get stuck I just start pencil marking like crazy, so that probably got me the 4 earlier than you did.

Today's medium puzzle was a cakewalk, but the hard puzzle took me a bit longer than I expected it would.
I also missed that 4 forever. Took me 25:19 today
Back, 11 today, flowed nicely, thangsk rangsk!
05:52 ez one today really wasnt stuck much.

Would love to see how you did this. I was stuck until I got some naked singles in box 1.

36:01 for me.
