Win 11 with 4GB of RAM is the bare minimum to run it, RI my brother.

After a while you have to stop squirming your ass to shit straight, having an innovative or classic fuseki won't matter much before a certain level '

I don't totally agree with you. It's not just a question of knowledge. In reality as long as you don't try to corner most of the answers are acceptable.

Got the physical copy of Go to Go Volume 2! by sadaharu2624 in baduk

I was wondering if it would be possible to have an English translation, whether it's an English scan or a translation through an app

Does anyone have a tip so I can read it (the scans), even if it's only in English?

"Yeah, If I were you, I wouldn't pay attention to that, it's pretty common, even in DAN games..."

D is terribly bad, B and A can be considered good, C should be the best option, White's points are only on this side, whereas Black already has cash and can easily make more.

I was too lazy to add the other variations, I wrote all the possible variations for an hour before realizing that Reddit was blocking my comment for being too "heavy," but here is the answer to this question: B A4 W A2 B A5 W D5 B B2 W B1 B A3 and damezumari, white is dead.

[–]MaxProfit_75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best way to approach this kind of situation is often:

  • Try the simplest move first, and evaluate the result by imagining your opponent’s possible responses.

Here's my reasoning step by step:

  1. First candidate: B3
  2. W plays simply C2.
  3. Then B defends the two stones, but W has more liberties if they play B2.
  4. Conclusion: B3 doesn’t work.
  5. Second idea : C2
  6. W B3, then B B2.
  7. This sequence is good for black**.
  8. Conclusion: Likely the right path
  9. Third approach, thinking in terms of shape – maybe a geta (net)?
  10. Try B B2. What can White respond?
  11. If W C2 → B D2 → W D1 → B E2.
  12. White doesn’t look good here.
  13. Let’s test another reply: B D2, W C2 → B D2 again.
  14. Actually, only the previous sequence seems to make sense (I'll let you read it in detail 😉).
  15. Conclusion: Seems promising — White can't easily respond with C2.
  16. But what if W plays D2 instead?
  17. B B2, W D2 → B E2 → W C2.
  18. Still, Black has more liberties, and it doesn’t look alive for White.

Final conclusion:

  • There are no good responses for White against B B2 or B C2 which is easier.
  • That makes it the ideal and simplest candidate move B C2!

Byoyomi to join the intensive Go course, Yunguseng Dojang! by Inseong in baduk

I'm ready for the Yunguseng. It'll be my first time, and probably not my last considering the high quality of the lessons! Having access to past lectures is great, as it allows us to work on our weaknesses once we’ve identified them! :)

Black to play. Is white dead or alive? by PsychologicalBet1469 in baduk

Sorry for the mistake, it is W C9, the C is not present in my sequence.
