You beat the computer playing Black.
So next time take White. I think that you will find that a simple territorial style will not work as White.

Here is a game that is representive of my playing on a 9x9 board. As you can see this was very territorial way of playing... I won that one but the computer is only on "medium" level, and the komi is 0. The point is not how strong a computer is or not... but I'm starting to feel that this kind of "territorial playing" has no chance to win when there is a komi of 6.5 or so. So the question is : On a 9x9 board with a komi, should we kill them all to win or is it a chance to win with a territorial style ? I wonder what you are thinking about that... |

As black, with white at 6.5 you definitely can't (in my experience.) as white you can play slightly laid back, as black you have to be bloodthirsty. |

The programm I'm playing playing as a challenge mode, and playing white is actually part of the challenge. challenge use a two axes system, with the computer strength one one axis and, the komi on the other axis. The first game I posted was level 3, with "komi 0" I finally also completed level 3 with komi 6.5 (tryied to be "blood thirsty" as suggered by RBerenguel, but that's again a territorial one that worked this time...) and now I have to beat computer at level 3, me playing white, with "0 komi"... |

Suggestion: Don't move a level up until you beat CS at least three times in a level. I don't play against very often, but I'm still stuck at level 3, komi 0. Best has been 2 straight wins so far, winning against it is non-trivial anyway. |

I think this is a really good suggestion, for now I was just trying to find "my hard limits", I mean the games that I cannot win at all at my level... and I think I somehow reached that wall... so time to move backward and consolidate things now... |

Hi oca, 9x9 can be fun of course; beware that 9x9 is basically a different game than 19x19 — you pretty much must start contact fights right away. Enjoy.

Sure, It's like playing a big tsumego ! I think playing different size may help not playing some kind of "auto move"... I mean playing a two spaces extension just because we have been told that's good... that help to understand that each situation is really unique... |
