I thought about this move for a long time before deciding on it. I definitely wanted to help my bottom left stone because, if white played in the same spot as I am on this turn, it would be very good for him: even if I live, I would be sealed in. Getting sealed in, in go, is very bad. So I considered the following spots:

a - My rationale behind "a" is that it helps me to get territory more easily on the bottom left. When compared to "c", this move is safer for me against an attack by white at the spot above "b". The reason I don't like it that much is that I am only thinking of defending. I put very little pressure on white since I am only thinking about points. I thought about points too much last game. Also, white can still slide in under the marked stone, so the amount of territory I get is not great, even.

b - I also considered this move. Since white's slide under is better for me:

so white might be inclined to invade the 3-3... But I don't think that is good for white here.

I almost played this move... But, just as with "a", "b" lacks vigor in that it thinks of only one thing: securing corner territory. It puts a lot less pressure on white than "c" does.



Therefore, I chose "c". I cannot be meek, and I must pressure white. I am reminded of a preview I saw at the movies the other day for some KungFu Kid remake with Jackie Chan.

Jacki Chan says something like, "the only way to stop them is to face them"... It's cheesy, but I think the only way I can stop Magicwand is if I face him boldly...

And that means putting more pressure on his stone with "c", in this case.

Everyone loves the underdog ;)

with 4 stone?? I AM THE UNDERDOG!! :D

I agree!! Kirby will probably win this game, because 4 stones is a lot, but I'm rooting for you, because I like the way you play: based a lot on intuition and the complete confidence in your ability to outfight your opponent :D This game will be tough, but you do have a chance, so good luck!

By the way, I'm really looking forward to your game against Violence, because as far as I've heard, he's a pretty strong fighter too, who likes to make things complicated. Am I right?


For Kirby:
Good luck with this game! Just remember not to let yourself get pushed around and don't rely on your handicap stones to do all the work for you and I'm pretty sure it won't be hard for you to win! And please punish magicwand's overplays, because as much as I like to see him get away with it, I'm also curious to learn how they can be punished ;)

I'll just have to play two levels better than normal then, won't I?

I cannot think of a move that I really love, but I thought of a move that I'm OK with. His move poses a threat to my group. He can use the weakness of my base to make good shape for himself whenever he wants. For example:

I'm not sure if either of these are best, but in any case, he can make good shape if he needs to.


Peeping at "a" is clearly a weak move at this point because of the relative weakness of my own stones:

The point of my last move was to put pressure on white's two stones - that definitely won't happen if he seals me in.

Trying to do something silly inside will just give Magicwand outside power... So I need to get out of here. I feel uncomfortable, but it's the only thing for me to do, I think. I cannot try to play fast like this, because it is too easy for white to cut me:

A knight's move isn't that great. It just invites white to cut apart my stones.

I think the best move for me to play at this point is a one space jump into the center.

He has only 5 stones on the board right now... I don't know why they look so menacing to me :-p ... It's kind of silly when I think about it like that.

Anyway, emotions aside, the move I played is the best I could think of after thinking for awhile about different possibilities.

I just want to say that I really enjoy the commentary you have put into these last few moves. Also, it seems you are in a better mood about the game than before, which is good.

I just want to say that I really enjoy the commentary you have put into these last few moves. Also, it seems you are in a better mood about the game than before, which is good.


Thank you very much.

This was not my first choice of move. In a blitz game, I would have likely played here:

The reason reiterates what I mentioned before: it's bad to get sealed in. "a" also serves this purpose, but it must be inferior since it strengthens white on the right.

Anyway, what I don't like is the peep at "b". It seems like Mr. Wand's style, and I feel like he's controlling the pace too much.

So I wanted a way to prevent the cut. Here's one way this could happen:

Now the peep is somewhat meaningless. Yes, white could seal me in this way. But my compensation is great:

And later I can have fun with black a, white b, black c. This is not the way for Mr. Wand to go.

Of course, he'll probably play this:

But, my friends, the peep is still protected and I can proceed as I desire.

I can say that I am pleased with this move. I cannot identify any mistakes I've made, yet.

i can see comments coming from everyone already...
i would never think of such aji keshi to protect my peep( at least that is what i think the reasone is ).
my 2 is deadly. and it will create complications all over the board.

So far so good. The reasoning for this move was explained in my last post.

Yep, there are white stones on the board. Do they feel threatening to me right now? Nope.

P4 is novel (well, I've never seen it before), but it has induced white to strengthen his O3 group, which will have a knock on effect on black's J3 stones. I think P4 reflects a preoccupation with territory which seems premature at this stage (and is also pointless, since white can slide from both directions). In it's favour, it does put some extra pressure on R8.

P4 was a bad peep. I'm very surprised Kirby played it. "Don't strengthen your opponent" is basic, and in addition to helping white this damaged black's side group.

Not for the players.

Augh :-?.

Both players misjudge the relative strengths of the groups. The black group in the corner is safe enough, and even if White peeps and connects, it can still make a base in the corner or go out to the centre. The move Magicwand proposes after the peep (attaching at P3) is the wrong direction, and the move Kirby played is as well. Black should have just played the kosumi at P7, making miai of N3 and attacking the lone white stone on the right.

The important thing in the position was the relative strengths of the groups on the lower side, and N3 was the vital point for securing a base for two opposing groups. Now Black has forced White to take the vital point. Black has lost at least the value of one handicap stone here.

Why do people fear peeps so much? It is just a peep, and you can answer a peep, can't you? There is no reason to preemptively answer an unplayed peep. In this case, Kirby could have played P4 in response to the peep after the peep has been played. Now, White will not peep but perhaps later slide, and Black looks silly for having answered an imaginary threat.

Magicwand's bottom group is strong, so that reduces the realative strength of my two stones here. Attacking the lone stone on the right is big, but strengthening my group here is bigger. For example:

Will not kill my two stones since white is weak with his stones, too, and I can run in either direction... But, it gives white a lot of forcing moves that he can use to gain central power or to make a strategy.

Plus, this weakens his two stones.

I thought about a leaning attack to pressure his stones more, but I don't have much attack right now. By strengthening, I will wait for a weakness and then attack.

With this move, I still feel like I haven't made any mistakes. I'll try to continue playing moves that keep me feeling that way.

I think the 4 handicap game just became a 3 handicap game.
