I'm not quite sure if "Game Analysis" here is a proper place to have a question like this...  Anyway I got some questions from the game below while I was reviewing the game. 1. Is w 156, letting b cut with 157, better than playing at J14 or G14? 2. Is b 171 better than playing at H6 capturing 2 w stones?

156 at B16 is actually bigger than at G14, since all of the area around K14/J13 is probably dame trash anyway. One of the things that makes B16 bigger is then W can play A18. If he does, then B has only one eye in the corner and must kill the white stones at G17/G18 - or at least be ahead in the liberties race to do so. That is about 4 stones that B must play in his own territory to defend against 2, a net profit for white. So to avoid that situation, B plays A18 himself - in gote. |
