Study List?

Post by LokBuddha »

Anybody can suggest a serious study list?(fuseki,...strategy..etc. but must be specific topic,and the source of the topic to be study like books, online sources) I am stuck at KGS 2d for a while now. study time should be around 1-2 hours a day,
I'm thinking of just doing the tasuki's tsumego but that is just tsumego.

Hmmm I guess, because the things a player is leaking differ from player to player, the best would be an individual studyplan for yourself and not a general thing. Do you feel that your game is leaking somewhere like you'r extremly bad in the fuseki or something?

Leaking in the middle of a game would definitely not put you in a frame of mind to move your game forward.

Indeed. Sometimes the most urgent move is not on the board.

currently I study everything, Joseki, fuseki, tsumego, theory concept, endgame.

Joseki strike me though, I still don't understand many of it. So many interesting variation, so lost. I know memorizing joseki is bad, all i am doing is studying the fight in joseki, think of it as sample fighting in the corner

Hmm i think a good jumping off point is;

40% Hard study (Mostly Tesuji and Tsumego problems but also fuseki and joseki studiess)
40% Playing
20% Reviewing played games
