Post subject: | Another Tournament Game |
Here is another tournament game which I lost. Time limits were 50 minutes each. Both players are European 4 kyu. Any help will be gratefully received. I have been practicing life-and-death problems, but with no signs of improvement so far. In fact, I have lost my last six games. In one of these, the other player was simply too strong, two were lost due to overlooking big ataris near the end of the game, two were lost through overattacking and one was a one-point loss where the opponent had 3 handicap stones. There are no records of any of those games, so I posted this one, where perhaps the fault was not attacking enough. Go is hard. (That should be my sig.) Edited to correct a typo in the title. Does that even work? |

Just what I noticed on a quick playthrough, take with a grain of salt. i think you're right, ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Any attack would have to start with a footsweep around s14 I think. Anyway I'd just connect at F12. Black still has a lot of problems. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() :w101: Maybe let them go and play O4? :w109: What about L3 instead? :w123: can't play a, black can capture with O6. :w133: You have a clever play here: R4 is sente, because it threatens a ko. Then you don't have to respond to this move. |

Emeraldemon: thanks for your comments on the game. I may risk arguing about one or two points, but that will be a separate post.

I think your main problem in this game was playing too loosely, leaving weaknesses behind without realizing their severity. ![]() ![]() W handled the fight quite well up to move 47, getting a reasonable result. You did not comment on the cut at move 42. Was this meant to be a sacrifice to gain forcing moves outside? If so, congratulations on your reading, that was a good plan. (Emeraldemon, take another look, and see if you agree.) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In this sort of position, the attachment at L4 can be quite powerful. The aim would be to force B to into a low position below, while building up center strength. Of course, if W manages to cut off some B stones and start a fight, that would be even better, considering the strong W positions on both sides. The actual ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() After B pulled out his cutting stones with ![]() |
