Post subject: | The One-Eyed Fool (game review #5) |
Halfway through my original objective of 10 game reviews these 2 weeks. First win of the series, though arguably my weakest play. Or let's say, I played well in the beginning, got a comfortable position and then slacked off a bit. I was obviously the stronger player and I made me play weaker than I should have. Still it was a comfortable win. ++ I used influence correctly. I kept my lead for once. -- I made many tiny mistakes that should've been punished. I slacked off when I thought it was a won game. (it was, but still you have to stay sharp) |

Hi Ian, me again! Plenty of comments on this one ![]() ![]() ![]() Your variations at this point look odd, there are better things for white to do here ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() up tp white 128 I think there was little more you could have done against that black group, not sealing it in around ![]() white 178 - why peep when you can cut at L7? white 198 - there is an interesting clamp tesuji at K6, try and see what happens if white plays here at the end, you both pass, but there is still four points to make at J11! ![]() A well fought game, you used your strength well and that attack in the centre definitely won you the game ![]() Two points however, firstly always try to find the most severe move against a group you're attacking, simply letting him push from behind is good but not good enough when you can hane! Secondly you played several peeps at the end when you could have cut, in general peeps are to be used sparingly, especially if there are cuts. Only peep at a cut if it gets you something worthwhile, simply adding a stone to an area you're already strong in isn't good enough! |

Cool, thanks a lot struttnoddy, plenty of comments! What I'll try to remember most is that I peep too often and, tbh, I usually don't know what to achieve with it, rather than just peep for the sake of peeping ![]() I guess I wasn't thinking off attacking his group enough, rather than just annoying it to get a big moyo. I should not let my opponent off that easy. Thanks! |
