That does not so much like an opening as a middle game started too early. |

So, its sorta like Ohashi Hirofumi's Black Hole, only twisted slightly |

This was played by Cho U a couple of weeks ago (and likely a couple of months ago on Tygem). See viewtopic.php?f=10&t=10710 |

I'd just like to get reasonable results from orthodox play. Seeing players get good results from moves that look like they make no sense is extremely frustrtaing. |

If I had forsaken other career/education opportunities and spent tens or even hundreds of thousands of hours studying Go to become a professional I would be extremely frustrated if I wasn't able to do things an amateur who only spent a few hours a week on Go could. |

Thanks for sharing this game! It makes me happy to think that the final chapter on good go play might not be written, though I'm doubtful this sort of play would hold up in longer games. Still, if there were no one willing to experiment we might miss out on some potentially beautiful games. |

I know a commentary by Ôhashi Hirofumi, who has played several of these "unusual" openings, in which he stated that "usually" -- maybe around move 80 or so -- the resulting POSITIONs look very much like "normal" ones, with the exception of only a very, very few stones. I am quite sure that he referred to pro-pro-games. |

As was previously pointed out, Cho U used this opening a month or two ago. He also used it on Tygem as Tenzaru2? I've been trying to get a collection of these games to see how this opening works, but so far I only have 2 ![]() |

Post subject: | Re: So Yokoku's unusual opening |
Sorry, I hadn't had my coffee yet, so I was not clear: the only games I have are this one, and the one Cho U used in a demo match a few months ago, which is in another thread. I have none of the Tygem games, though I want them badly. Is anyone on PC Tygem? Is there a feature to pull down the tenzaru2 games, historically? I have only been able to get Tygem to work on my Ipad, and the app does not seem to have a historical games feature. ![]() |
