Post subject: | Mixed News, Part 2 |
So I've continued trying to play more aggressively, albeit it the slight worry in my mind of what I'll do when I get to the level of opponents who know how to handle such aggression. Recently I came up against such an opponent, as it seemed that nothing I tried worked, although I didn't realize it until several moves after the fact. Part of the problem is that while I played what I think are more daring moves, they also had the effect of leaving a possible weakness and having to figure out what to do if my opponent tries to exploit it: The tenuki on ![]() The pincer attack on ![]() ![]() Leela also hated my play at K17, which surprised me since I thought it was a good, aggressive reducing move. |

Move 7: Q5 is probably best, but if you can keep sente and come back to it, a tenuki may be fine. |

This is the same reason why I extended on ![]() Edit: I mean, I know that if ![]() But every time I play like that I feel like I get an unsatisfactory result. With 5 as in Joaz's diagram and the pincer, I don't see where Black is supposed to get eyes. |

Let's peer into the future. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Edit: It has always been common to leave a single stone unprotected, and in the past good players often played the stand in reply to the kick, and left those stones unprotected, as well. Also, they did not simply make a three space extension from those stones, but often made more distant extensions. The bots have brought that style back into vogue. Mid-Twentieth century textbooks taught us to extend from those stones, but you don't need to, really. ![]() |
