Most people know that if you play here, the books say that approaching high and near to the lower right is bad.

For example, in this diagram, black is connected on the bottom side, and feels much better than white.

In this situation, the high near approach is much much more common. In fact, most people play it.

Yes, it was all part of my plan to induce him to play the high near approach so that I could play my trick.

Thanks!

I wasn't certain if this was just an induction (Which I wasn't sure it was, because I'm only just learning not to approach Kobayashi so high and close) or if this was your normal style and this was just one of many tricks you had 'just in case' they came up.

What is :w3:? The shape is bad and to play like this is too painful. I refused to believe any sensible professional would play this way, so I checked the database. The general consensus seems to be to play at 'a', which allows B to strengthen the lower side for B with 'b', and then counter-pincering with 'c' as W:

After which B cuts off access with 'a' or 'b', or plays the solid 'c'. W can extend :w3: to approach the top corner, and has S2 to R6 for life. White can also open up access to the center if he needs to by pushing with N5 at the cost of giving Black more territory on the bottom.

if he plays 1 then i will play 2.
i dont like the variation sofar.. but i had my reason.(i hate running away while they solidify their points.)

later i will probe at "a" to setup the invasion in the bottom.
i dont think anyone is ahead by too much..just slight feeling that he got me.

Who is this, and where is the ever confident Magicwand we've come to love?

I do find it interesting that Violence was trying to set up a trap, and here is Magicwand saying that he fells like he fell into one. That's some thing I don't think I'm very good at, just getting a feeling about a position (usually when that happens it is FAR too late).

K10, J10? Do we have different coordinate systems?

With the Black K4 move White can reduce the bottom area with an invasion at the marked point. With the Black J4 move White can't invade here but Black's bottom side is wider and so easier to invade or reduce in other ways.

Just trying to broaden my horizons and better understand the full meaning of moves and variations


Do you really mean k10? Tengen? Or is that a typo? Isn't this just a variation of the kobayashi formation? See: http://senseis.xmp.net/?KobayashiFuseki

The important thing is not to play on the right side, because it's small with the open skirt. Magicwand can play R9 whenever he wants.

This forcing move is to help his invasion.

I'm really not scared of anything he pulls down here. There's no pressure to maintain the lead right now.

I mean, seriously. You played S7. I hope you're feeling stupid.

Uhhh...yeah...I kinda noticed that it was a probe.

Would you care to tell us what you were probing for? As I understand it, a probe seeks to make the opponent commit himself one way or the other, and then you base your future play upon his choice.
What were his possible options here, and what would how would your plans differ if he had chosen another option?

Which invasion? Top or bottom?

And did you consider any other resonses aside from the one you played?

i expect him to answer as he did so i can use that 1 stone as an aji.
later there is a chance he might answer N5. that is why i probe here now..and use that aji later. i can not give you any variation. it is a feeling that i have i think it is right time to play this probe. sorry about not explaining more on this probe.

So by 'probe', you tend to mean a sente stone that you'll want to have in the area later, right?

hum...what i played is only one stone..
i have no idea what good it will bring.
but i am sure that it will create more variation on my invasion later.
all depends on how you use that stone.
you shouldnt be afraid of making such probe.
it does more good than harm many time.

Uhh... I only have one moyo... and his move is right next to that moyo.

And no. There is no other move here, I'm fairly sure.
