After game 3, my advice to Lee Sedol is the same as before game 1: instead of fighting locally, he must, from the beginning, go for global, long-term interaction including good positional judgement...
Contrary to this advice, it was by putting pressure on AlphaGo with complicated tactical reading that Lee managed to elicit a mistake and win the 4th game.
Why, did he read my advice?!:)
Game 4 consists of these stages: 1) Lee's opening with global planning and some long-term planning, 2) his mistake of letting Black get a center wall, 3) light reduction hamete play followed by offering the upper center as a sacrifice, 4) Black's improper capture and White's rescue plays, 5) the losing Black with desparare play.
During stages 1 and 4 and maybe 3, Lee's play conformed to my advice. During stage 4, Lee also used complicated reading. Maybe I have not worded my advice clear enough; I have not meant to prohibit complicated, CORRECT reading but I have suggested to avoid only relying on INCOMPLETE local reading, which Alphago does better most of the time.
