Post subject: | Two of my Finnish Championship qualifiers games | |||
These are my games from this weekend's tournament. Sadly I don't have records of the games I lost, it would be much more instructive to receive criticism about them. I lost two games at Saturday, but suffering of horrible lack of sleep I couldn't record or remember them. One of my games was short enough to remember, and other one was (humiliating enough) broadcasted at KGS so I have the sgf. My boyfriend friendly deleted the kibitz, because I didn't want to see the comments. (I couldn't care less about strangers' comments but I am rather sensitive about what some of my "friends" say in kibitz mode.) Please mostly say things about my moves, since I'm the one to learn here.

Hi, I was at the tournament too ![]() I'm at most as strong as you are, but like to think fuseki is my relative strong point. So, a few comments on the beginnings of the first game, and some random musings on the second. Take both with a grain of salt.

Thanks for both of you! I should be doing school stuff now but I'll discuss the rest of comments later.

Ataris are too nice for white? |

Ataris are too nice for white? Yes. The kosumi has a vital point (actually 4, by symmetry): Each of the points a is a vital point for the kosumi, where white would like to play. If there is already a stone there when black plays, it is usually not a good move. Common examples: ![]() ![]() Another common beginner mistake. Black thinks he can defend the corner before extending to ![]() ![]() White thinks the tower peep of ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Of course, there are exceptions to this rule, but it is generally a good idea to be very careful before playing a kosumi if one of the vital points is already taken. |

My teacher has said that given black p8, for example, the black moyo isn't really *huge* yet. But I dislike opponent's moyos, so I just played what made the game feel good for me, even if it's slightly suboptimal. And if black plays p8, it weakens my right side group. TIM82 wrote: Perhaps a misjudgement, but I would leave these stones to themselves for the moment. Is black really going to use a move to capture them if you take a big point elsewhere? I would as black. They are cutting stones. TIM82 wrote: Protect the cut while threatening to enter top corner seems better, some random variations attached. Can't of course read the whole thing out ![]() Yeah I should have just connected. I am just making unnecessary mess here. I misread I can capture black in geta ![]() |

HermanHiddema wrote: ![]() I was thinking that, but was worrying about black group getting strong too easily. Probably I should have thought about not creating weak white group to prevent that. HermanHiddema wrote: ![]() I see. That one I didn't even think about. I am rather weak at making good shape. HermanHiddema wrote: ![]() Lose some stones, I suppose. I knew in this point that I had messed things up, because the ridiculous "geta" sequence. Luckily black allowed white s12. HermanHiddema wrote: ![]() Yep, should be common sense HermanHiddema wrote: ![]() ![]() ![]() I cannot really understand what I played there. Around move 96 I read I'm dead almost for sure. These games were played with one hour basic time and 5/25 Canadian overtime. Both me and my opponent were running out of basic time when moves like b111 were played. I think his clock beeped and he played that move as a reflex. Saved by bell or something. |
